Throughout years of playing sports, it’s natural to become very familiar with players from opposing teams. Beginning to learn a rival’s strengths and weaknesses can become very important in all sports. Redbank Valley athletes were first asked to look back on some of the strengths they’ve seen in opposing players, and then make a fantasy team for their particular sport, using other athletes around the area, and themselves.
