BARTLETT 2018 - 2019 

   Bartlett Panthers enter the 2018-2019 season at the No. 2 spot in the MemphisHoopers.com Top Ten Poll with a senior oriented team notched at 13 seniors that includes an addition of a high caliber player in Antavion Collum. That early preseason hype has turned into high expectations for the panthers but compadres this group of young men are for real Ten Fold!! TSSAA Postseason advancement is definitely expected who have all the potential in the world vying for the gold ball in Murfreesboro, Tennessee with the schools last TSSAA championship coming in 2000.

Antavion Collum

     Senior Antavion Collum (6'8 - 225 lbs., espn #, Ole Miss commit) one of the top premier players in the region who has already committed to Ole Miss of the SEC. Coach Real states, "Collum is a very versatile player with a high basketball IQ and a leader in the locker room". Collum played last year at Tennessee Prep Academy where he blew up after two invisible years at Memphis East and will finish his high school career at one of the best high schools in the state Hands Down! His strong sturdy body frame, size  and hard work ethic is definitely a plus for the panthers overall heading into postseason tournament time.

Jalen Cincore 

    Another top senior Jalen Cincore (6'5 - 205 lbs., 24/7 #, Georgia Southern commit) who is the most athletic player on the ball club and also plays above the rim on both sides of the ball on all possessions in strong fashion. Mid season injury has him down for a minuto but will definitely be back for the second half of the season in rare form to ready for postseason advancement accordingly. Sylvester Thompson (5'10 - 170 lbs., 24/7 #,) runs the floor as a point guard very good but can also play as a combo guard with his solid outside shooting to go along with his super athletic ability at hand.

Jefferson Walker 

     Jefferson Walker (6'0 - 170 lbs., 24/7 #,) who Coach Real said, "is tough as nails in any situation brought before him in very strong fashion respectively". Walker has one of the best shots in the city with unlimited range all over the court plus solid decision making skills. Junior Rodney Mason (6'5 - 220 lbs.) one of two juniors on the team, who is also one of the top juniors in the state that starts all ball games and who possesses a high basketball I.Q. Mason can do a little of everything on both sides of the ball in physical array.

    Another senior on this history making panthers is senior Takori Rooks (6'6 - 220 lbs.) who plays like a big man and might be under sized but this young man has great footwork with a work horse mentality. Senior Wynne Brown (5'7 - 160 lbs.) is another high energy player who is silky smooth at the point guard position with cat quick speed for real Ten Fold. Brown who is an lock down defender and probably the best defender on the ball club full of solid defenders overall. Juniors Jaylin Lucas (6'6 - 195 lbs.)
