Basketball Plays for High School | Rick Byrd Horns Set Play

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Basketball Plays for High School | Rick Byrd Horns Set Play

Belmont has gone from a NAIA school to NCAA Division I under Head Coach Rick Byrd who is in his 28th season in charge.

This Horns set relies on “reading” the defense and attacking the right option with the end side pick and roll action.

Rick Byrd drills his basketball players to be very fundamentally sound. Here is one of the basketball plays for high school that they use to get their shooters free. Coach Byrd does a great job of finding set plays that will get their shooters going strong.

Belmont (18-8, 9-2 OVC) beat Austin Peay (10-13, 4-5) for the fifth time in a row this saturday night 93-68. They got their shooters and post players working in tandem so that they had an inside and outside scoring threat.

This Rick Byrd Horns Set Play is one of the basketball plays for high school that I enjoyed using for my team. As the play-offs come down the road, you need to start looking at one or two new wrinkles that the other teams haven’t seen your team run.
