BENTON RANGERS BASKETBALL

Updated: Jan 6, 2022






It's That Time For Boys High School Basketball We've gotten to the point where all the teams are starting to finish up their pre-season basketball tournaments. Most of time people in Little Egypt talk about Mt. Vernon, Centralia, and Nashville, but I'm here to talk about the Benton Rangers. Most recently the Rangers are coming off of a Goreville Invitational Tournament, they had a 5-0 record in the tournament.(GIT) Reid Baumgarte had impressive showing at the tournament averaging 9.4 points per game (PPG), 3 assist per game (APG), 2.8 rebounds per game (RPG), and 3.6 steals per game. Baumgarte helped carry Benton to their 5th (GIT) Tournament Champion. He would be averaging even more if it wasn't for his 37% free throw percent. Benton also has 2 young sophomore stars, Issac Billington, and Luke Melvin. Luke Melvin is shooting a phenomenal 52% from beyond the arc he averages 6.6 (PPG). The other casting star Issac Billington shoots 49% from from three, and he also averages 6.3 (PPG) and guess what he can pass the ball to. I’m predicting this team to finish regular season 2nd in (SIRR OHIO) and they'll finish the year 23-7, it just depending on if Benton’s top players can stay consistent this year.
