Gramps Braggin Rights Boys Basketball Pre-season Prognostications - Metro Conference 9/18/21
Today's focus is on the Metro Conference with MICDS, Westminster Academy, Priory, John Burroughs, Lutheran North and Lutheran South and Principia.
MICDS has dominated of late but a late season upset by Westminster launched the Westminster into a long playoff run and a runner-up trophy to Vashon in class four.
Westminster brings back nearly the entire team with 93% of their scoring returning and they will be the odds on favorite to win the Metro League and potentially another shot at a state championship.
I will be especially interested to see how coach Peewee Lenard handles the John Burrough team, one with a lot of potential, that could really blossom under Peewee's detailed eye and demand for excellence. A real coach's coach, Peewee was an assistant for the Brad Beal 17U national runner-up EYBL, coached by former Burrough's coach Corey Frazier. Peewee has developed some great kids in his St. Louis Magic program and I hope the Burroughs kids will respond and destroy my projection.
All of my predictions are statistically-based upon a mathematical model with VPS, defensive points allowed, point differential and returnee scoring. See my Intro for more info.
