Freshman Play-maker Headlines Trenton’s Hoops

Special report Trenton’s leading scorer last season was a freshman. This winter, the basketball standout could be sharing the back court with another one. Sophomore Caleb Dixon returns as an all-conference and all-district standout, and freshman guard Guy Gottman has already earned a starting role with the varsity team. Together, they give coach Jon Guthrie a young core to build around as the Bulldogs prepare for their Nov. 24 home opener against East Buchanan. “Our THS boys basketball team will be young and competitive this season,” Guthrie told the Trenton Telegraph. Dixon started as a freshman and led the team at 13 points per game. “During the 2025-26 season, he was our all-conference and all-district player,” Guthrie said. “He … did a great job on the defensive end. He’s a very good leader.” Junior Cayden Farmer is the other returning starter, and he made his mark at the other end of the floor.
