THE BEST IN ILLINOIS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL RECRUITING!

Decatur Eisenhower Going Deep
by Pat Benninger
June 23, 2006

Last year’s Big 12 Conference Champions, return all their key players this year and are looking to have even more success.

The Panthers of Decatur Eisenhower have their eye on the prize this year.  They are led by the junior duo of 5’10” point guard-Lewis Jackson and 6’8” forward-Jeremy Robinson.  Both were all-conference players last season along with 6’2” senior guard-Lester Hart.  All three will be looked upon the most to contribute scoring.

Look for big contributions from 5’10” Division One recruit-Bart Dandridge, who will most likely come off sixth man, 6’3” senior guard-Brandel Griggs, and 6’5” senior-Westley Dawson.  All three played major roles on last year’s team.

The Panthers will have their hands full in the conference with Champaign Central, who split the conference title with them last season and a tough Bloomington Purple Raiders.  However, they are figured to still come out on top.

This weekend, the Panthers will be participating in the Western Illinois University Team Camp.
