Rankings next week will be hard to predict. If CR drops out does Woodbridge drop out as well since CR just beat them head to head last week? St. Mark's could hop back n the Top 10 w/ the win over CR. Sallies could hop back in as well coming off of wins over St. E's & Appo. Could it be that Sallies is playing better as a team without Ingraham? Crazy year so far should make for an interesting tournament.

This doesn't surprise me. Not saying Ingraham isn't the best player but sometimes it alters how others play w or w/o him.

BTW, the Sanford v. Hodgson game next week just got a lot more interesting.

@J12 i agree, on a different thread, people are calling out their final four predictions but I believe there is not one solid lock this year. The chip is up for grabs. Whichever team gets hot and peaks at the right time will win. IMO any of the top 10-15 teams could make a serious run, very crazy year. Could be the year of the underdogs. Makes this year a very exciting season and one of the most competitive in a while. You could say it's a down year overall talent wise if you like but I think it's just more spread out from upstate to downstate.

By the way I have no problem with people rooting for their schools or including them in their final four predictions, it's up for grab, so root for your squad whoever they are cause they've got as good a shot as anyone else, just saying with exception of woodgreen lol
