NICK SANCHEZ, 2023 (ARTESIA HIGH SCHOOL)
PLAYERCARD
Today, we highlight the senior guard who is looking to play a huge part in the success that is expected to come from this squad in 2022/2023. Sanchez has been on our radar for two-years now and will look to take the Bulldogs deep into the playoffs this season. Sanchez can score out of the offense but can create for teammates.
