A LITTLE ABOUT THE YELLOW JACKETS
The McGill-Toolen Yellow Jackets return to the 2023 Gulf Coast Holiday Classic as the Red Bracket Champions and a stellar season. They lost a close game in the 6A semifinal last year to Buckhorn and finished the season with a 29-7 record. Senior guard Devin McCaine was named MVP and is continuing his career at Bishop State at the moment. Key returner Jack Murphy has taken on a vital roll in the Yellow Jackets early success this season while his father, head coach Phillip Murphy, recovering from surgery. McGill-Toolen doesn't have tons of experience this season but, that was the case last year and look at the run they made.
