Bryson Lariscy is the TeamFYNSports Writer’s Player of the Week for the Panthers!

Lariscy, the team’s starting senior point guard, is the leader of Union Co.’s boys basketball team both on and off the court, according to head coach Corey Garrett.

“He’s working his tail off this season,” Garrett said. “He basically runs our practices. You have the coaches on the side, obviously, at every practice, but it’s really Bryson who is running the show and actually helping improve his teammates.”

Garrett said that Lariscy’s contributions to the team rarely show up in the stat book.

“From day one, he has led our team with his energy and his body language. He’s one of our best defenders, especially in the open court, and he just helps us in so many ways that you can’t see just looking and stats.”

Larsicy scored six points for the Panthers (2-4) in a narrow, 53-51 loss to Fannin Co. on Saturday, Dec. 7, in Blue Ridge.

For his efforts, Bryson Lariscy is the TeamFYNSports Writer’s Player of the Week for the Panthers!
