MaxPreps actually said this in a Richmond Times article about JM

[M11H16D18H]

"The Justices (23-0) destroyed Prince Edward County (Farmville) 124-41 on Tuesday in the Region 2A quarterfinals. Coach Ty White’s team will next host Thomas Jefferson (12-11) in the region semifinals on Thursday. The winner of that game will play Brunswick or Greensville County in Friday’s region championship.
So long as John Marshall takes care of business and wins its third Class 2 championship in as many seasons, Divens said the Justices have a good chance to finish the season as the nation’s No. 1 high school basketball team."

As long as they wreck shop in 2A, they will remain # 1......

Also, this would be 3 out of 4 years. The only year they didn't win, they didn't play. (Covid)

Also, poor Prince Edward. I am sure JM didn't try to run it up. Just couldn't help it.

No, remember John Marshall won the State Covid year (2020). Theirs was the only game played before the games were cancelled.

Correct. I believe that was the year Richmond City Public Schools did not have Winter sports at all.
