Seth Brent

The Brent name has come to mean dominance in Intermountain Conference boys basketball. Seth Brent has kept that going with his stellar play this year, leading the Cougars to a 23-1 record going into Saturday’s playoff game against Corvallis (at Mountain View 6pm). Seth’s older brother Brady was the 2008-2009 IMC player of the year and led Mountain View to a 19-4 record. Seth, at 6-7, leads the No. 3-ranked Cougars in scoring and rebounding this season.
