2014-15 record: 23-6

One of the state's more consistent winners in recent years is under new management as Blue comes over from rival Jesuit.

It's a special time at Silverton. Coach and father Steve Roth and player and son Samuel Roth (6-2, Sr., G) swept 5A coach and player of the year awards last season, respectively. The Foxes also won the state title and will be a favorite to do so once again in 2015-16.
