Look for a historic season from the Patriots. One of the most talented rosters they have had in a while, and still pretty young (lots of sophomores/juniors). Destroyed Patrick Henry Roanoke on Friday. Wouldn't be surprised if they go 14-0 in the Jefferson which is an impressive feat. Class 5 is LOADED from top to bottom in boys hoops but Albemarle got some key experience last year in their run to the Final Four, one buzzer beater away from the state title game. They lost two college hoopers including a D1 player in Ben Wesson and might somehow be better this year...crazy to think about. Just saying keep an eye on them this winter.

Completely agree - Coach Greg Maynard does a superb job and I liked their youth a lot when I saw them up close and personal, live, in the Jefferson District Tournament Championship last winter at a Charlottesville team with considerable size on its front-line.

Makai Ragland is one of the better sophomores in the state, regardless of position or class. Does a lot on the court and scores it effortlessly.
