OK, so Im a small tardy with rankings. But theyre here. If you need to sense how to slice me detached for my rankings, greatfully see a comments trustworthy to a football list I posted final night. The football guys really know how to do it.
Preseason Top 101. Iona Prep: Three Division I-bound players lapse from a organisation that went 26-2 as good as reached a Class A Federation tournament. Not a bad resume. The Gaels come in a year as a tip organisation in a area, nonetheless Im certain a single a subsequent 6 will expected unseat them during some point.
2. Mount Vernon: The four-time Class AA champs have a areas tip player in Jabarie Hinds as good as a slew of guys staid to have a splash in ancillary roles. Hinds will be a face of this organisation for a initial month. But look for others to emerge as keep Mount Vernon upon tip in AA.
3. New Rochelle: Antoine Mason as good as P.J. Torres have been quite a combo, as good as St. Rays transfer Steve Whittingham fits a need during indicate guard. Dont overlook Stanley Laurent, either, inside. The Huguenots, upon paper, have been a critical contender for a Section I title.
4. Poughkeepsie: The wealth of bent upon a Pioneers register also puts them firmly in a brew in AA. Losing Brandon James inside will be difficult. But Dayvone Whitaker is a illusory guard, as good as Nate Gause as good as Elijah McLaurin have been entrance off extensive summers in AAU.
5. North Rockland: The Red Raiders lapse all 5 starters as good as their tip 9 scorers from final season. They went 20-2 as good as reached a Class AA sectional semifinals, losing to Poughkeepsie in a heart-breaker. The report will be a small some-more challenging this season, so a record competence not be as impressive. Still, North Rockland will have a contend in who wins a pretension in AA.
6. Peekskill: The six-peat seems roughly unavoidable as prolonged as Daqua! n Brickh ouse is using a offense as good as Kenny Bradshaw is determining a middle. The Red Devils will fill a holes vacated by Darien Thomas as good as Ralph Watts, just similar to they always do. They might not be overly impressive to start. But, by a second half, theyll be distant as good as away a best organisation in Class A.
7. Stepinac: Three starters lapse for Stepinac, led by 6-5 youth Conroy Baltimore as good as ensure Kadeem Francis as good as Thomas Decker. Francis is an bomb bent who had a great summer, as good as Decker is a superb outward shooter. Stepinac, as always, plays a brutal schedule. The record wont reflect how great this organisation really is.
8. Mount St. Michael: The core of Gary Acquah, Peter Aguilar as good as 6-9 center Brian McMahon have a welcome addition during indicate ensure in New Rochelle transfer Malik Gill. If hes anywhere near as great as William Williams was a final two years, a Mounties could pass Stepinac as good as be a legitimate plea to Iona Prep in a CHSAA A Division.
9. Horace Greeley: Love a inside-outside threat of 6-6 youth Matt Townsend as good as indicate ensure Adam Honig. Townsend is a far-reaching body that couple of teams will be means to flesh with for 4 quarters. All reports Ive heard about Honig is that hell be a single of a areas tip shooters. As prolonged as a organisation around them plays consistent basketball, Greeley will be a factor in AA.
10. Pleasantville: As a tip organisation in Class B, Ill throw a Panthers into this final spot. They lapse 4 starters, all of that have been three year players. Nolan Robinson is a loyal personality upon a court. Jack Bramswig is an awesome post player upon both ends of a floor. And Robbie DelleBovi is a certain shooter as good as as smart a player youll find. If Matt Nicolai continues his development, Pleasantville could fool around with roughly anyone.
On a brink: Lincoln; Spring Valley; White Pl! ains; Sc arsdale.
Small-school rankings1. Pleasantville: The Panthers have been transparent favorites going into a year, which, in Class B, is a curse.
2. Valhalla: Speaking of favorites, no organisation in Section 1 is some-more of a favorite to win a Gold Ball some-more than Valhalla. Not even Peekskill. James Jensen as good as Dan Annunziata have been back. The lapse of LaQuinn Shuler from Trinity Catholic puts this organisation good over a top.
3. Blessed Sacrament: As a B Division school in a CHSAA, a Cardinals validate for this list. Theyve got a dynamic center in David Samuels as good as a clever organisation of immature guards to complement him.
4. Hackley: Keep an eye upon a Hornets, who reached a Independent schools state final final deteriorate in Class B. Jon Salandra as good as Ace Piodorano have been a good combo. Hackley faces Lincoln Hall upon Thursday during Sleepy Hollow.
5. Lincoln Hall: The United lapse a single starter from final year in defensive-specialist Zack Alston. The addition of Corey Blair (formerly of Peekskill) as good as Jalen Cason will have this organisation a critical contender in Class B to Pleasantville by March.
