Division Three Preseason Rankings

On to division three rankings. Doesn't seem to have as many elite teams as there have been in the past but, it should still be a great season. It seems that private schools are making their mark on D3 once again.

1. Martin Luther- Won 21 games a year ago and have a ton of talent back in their senior class. 6'5 Xzavier Jones is a high major college player, 6'2 Ace Evans had a coming out party a year ago, 6'6 Jeramie King should improve moving into the starting lineup, and 5'10 Trequan Carrington was their leading scorer a year ago.
2. Waupun- Lost only two games a year ago and bring back three starters led by Northern Kentucky recruit 6'6 senior Marcus Domask who has been the leading scorer for the past three years. They also received a talented transfer in 6'4 senior Quintin Winterfeldt who was leading scorer for Fon du Lac last year.
3. Lakeside Lutheran- Four starters back from a 19 win team and led by a trio of seniors who have starter for two years already in 6'0 Will DeNoyer, 6'4 Jack Monis, and 6'6 Cameron Paske.
4. Brookfield Academy- Another team that brings back five players that started at times a year ago from a team that won 20 games. Have a big time scorer in 6'1 junior Aidan Cleary who averaged 20 a game as a sophomore. Also have some nice size in 6'8 sophomore Logan Landers and 6'6 junior Alex Leach.
5. Racine St Catherines- Five starters are back from a 17 win team and they are led by 6'6 senior Quinn Cafferty.
6. Golda Meir- Upstart team that is a newer school and bring back four starters and a ton of height in 6'6 senior Mario Williams, 6'6 senior Brandon Herman, 6'4 senior Duane Rogers, and 6'8 sophomore Selle Dime off the bench.
7. Southern Door- Again another team that won 20 games and brought back four starters led by 6'2 senior Kyle Daoust who averaged 22 points a game.
8. Brown Deer- They lost a lot of players but, they always seem to find their way up to the top. Keith Appleby has become one of the top coaches in the state and have a pair of double digit scoring seniors in 5'8 Jaylon Gentry and 6'2 Jeremiah Dotson.
9. Prescott- State runner up last year and they bring back a pair of starters with lots of experience in 5'11 senior Brian Tayson and 6'3 junior Parker Nielson who was their second leading scorer a year ago.
10. Platteville- Feel like I'm repeating the same story over and over. Won 19 games last year and bring back four starters.
