Player to watch Jordan Kennon averaging 18 points per game
rebounds average 14 per game
Brethren is too dominate this year, they should go 10-0 unless they beat themselves. They have 3 dominating players and some good young talent around those three
how can they be so dominant if they only won with 10 against st margarets. And it was a homegame for brethren... its not over yet they are going to loose like they did last year when they thought it was all over
BCHS Warriors are the 2008/2009 league champs
