Osbourn Park Senior High School is looking forward to something that is tough for many schools to start of the school year with — a roster full of returning players.  At the end of the 2013-2014 season, the Girls Varsity Basketball team, led by Head Coach Clifton Gorham, only lost one senior.  That means this coming year, he can worry less about re-teaching and more time honing in on the development of his current players.

Gorham feels that with the talent and focus of his returning core, the Lady Yellow Jackets will be destined for success.
