After going 20-10 and reaching the second round of the state tournament last season, Archer returned plenty of experience and welcomed an influx of new talent to ascend to the top of the state rankings this season. Junior point guard Madison Newby led the returners after leading Gwinnett County in scoring last season with 18.5 points per game. Amber Skidgel, a 6-foot junior transfer from Hebron Christian, and Newby’s sister, 6-foot-2 freshman Autumn, led the newcomers.
