Updated: 13 hours ago
Good luck to the Vanlue Wildcats, their coaches, and every player as they prepare for the 2026–2027 boys basketball season.
Team Details
Division: 7
School colors: ☐ Confirm current palette with school.
Conference: Blanchard Valley Conference.
Head coach: Source conflict / unusual listing: the live 2026–27 team page lists J. Kloepfer and T. Nye simultaneously as head coaches, with J. Kloepfer duplicated in the page rendering. John Kloepfer coached the 2025–26 team, but no attempt is made to choose between the current live head-coach entries without school confirmation.
Last season (2025–26): 1–22 overall, 0–9 in Blanchard Valley play, tenth in the current public summary. Roster/history.
