Top Seed
The overall top seed went to The O’Neal School, which was no surprise here this year. They have been dominant throughout the season, giving up only 24.5ppg to opponents and only have one loss on the season which came to Elizabeth Seton out of Maryland. They have been strong both offensively and defensively, and someone is going to have to put in a tremendous game plan to slow them down on their way to a state title.
Other Teams to Watch
Rocky Mount Academy is an interesting program to keep an eye on, as they are led by Taylor Carmichael and company. They have stepped up and brought a strong balance on the floor but this is also a young team in many ways, so they will have to prove that they are ready for the big stage. Another team that I would have my eyes on is Wayne Country Day. They have a leader in Jada Vanderhorst (15.2ppg) but also have seniors who can really help this team.
