Boys hoops XXI

Salinas
It still seems a little strange not seeing Joe Chappell on the bench after 41 years, replaced by a 6-foot-9 icon that went to North Salinas in the late 1980's in Jens Gordon.
 Gordon inherited a program that lost its top two scorers to graduation. But the cupboard isn't bare.
 Josef Delk opened the Gordon era with a career high 34 point night. There could be more of those down the road for the sharpshooter.
 The Cowboys can run and shoot. Yet, for the second straight year, they are trying to replace an all-league post. Big men that can dominate don't always grow on trees.
