Boys' Basketball: North Class AAA Preview
Mars went 18-8 and finished behind Hampton in Section 1 last season.
The Planets are not only the favorites to win the section, but also among the favorites to capture the WPIAL title. Leading the way will be junior guard Owen Nearhoof, senior guard Mitch Buzzard and 6-7 senior center Josh Goetz.
Freeport joins Section 1 after making the move from Class AA. The Yellowjackets have a standout senior guard in Brendan Lynch (14.3 ppg).
It could be a major rebuilding season for Highlands, which lost the WPIAL’s leading scorer, Micah Mason, who is now at Drake. Like Highlands, Knoch made the WPIAL playoffs last season, but the Knights must replace several key contributors.
