Top Returning Teams

It's been awhile because I just haven't had the chance to post in a while but, thought I would just do a quick run down of the top teams to watch for next year in no particular order.

Division One
Brookfield Central- The defending state champs bring back a pair of D1 college players in 6'1 sophomore Ben Nau and 6'6 sophomore David Joplin.

Sun Prairie- Lost a lot but, bring back 6'0 junior Colin Schaefer and 6'6 Delaware Hale who had seasons that were limited for a variety of reasons. With a full season from those two things should be very much the same as this year.

Madison East- Team that lost only one real rotation player from a team that lost only one guy. 6'3 junior Anthony Washington is a D1 player and I fully believe that 6'3 junior Keonte Jones could get there as well.

Sussex Hamilton- 6'9 sophomore Patrick Baldwin may be the best player in the state and they bring back just about everyone.

Arrowhead- 6'8 Carter Gilmore is one of the best juniors in the state.

Division Two
Nicolet- One of the best teams in the country headlined by two elite 6'9 juniors in Jalen Johnson and Jamari Sibley. Throw in another pair of D1 college players in juniors 6'3 Kobe Johnson and 6'6 James Graham.

La Crosse Central- They have three D1 recruits in the 6'5 junior Davis twins and 6'7 Terrence Thompson.

Milwaukee Washington- 6'9 sophomore Michael Foster is one of the elite players in the state and 6'5 freshmen Tre White is one of the best in his class in the state.

Onalaska-Have a loaded junior class and they bring back everyone and then have 6'9 sophomore Gavin McGrath manning the middle.

Division Three 
Racine St. Catherines-Pushed Martin Luther to the limit this past year and they bring back Tyrese Hunter one of the best players in the state.

St Johns Military Academy- Honestly don't know much but, lost only two games this past year and they just seem to load up every year.

Brookfield Academy- Had a very impressive team the past year and Aiden Clary is back and he can go off at any time and get 30 points. They had the size with 6'6 Alex Leach and 6'9 Logan Landers.

Dominican- The greek freaks little brother Alex is poised for a monster year and if he can get a little help he might make a deep run. 

Division Four
Cuba City- Braden Dailey coming in to a very good team puts them over the top. Throw in the coach and the tradition that they always have.

Mineral Point- Isaac Lindsey is a talented D1 college recruit and they have a very good team and bring back a lot of players from this years team.

Darlington- A very talented team that I don't know a ton about but, they had a very good record this past year.

Division Five When in doubt go with the private schools right?
Sheboygan Lutheran- Not sure anyone will be able to touch them next year as they bring back three starters from the state champion team. Casey Verhagen might be the top point guard in D5 and Jacob Ognacevic is probably the best player in D5.

Mcdonell Central- Have a rich tradition Eion Kressin is a three year starter.
