Class B preview!

So this shouldnt take too long.  Lansing Sexton is the best team in the state, hands down.  They are led by 3-4 potential first or second team All-Staters.  The best of which is headed to MSU next year, the coaches son: Denzel Washington.  He is a 6'5" strong point guard that will likely play wing or the two in MSU's system.  His pojected college ability is a little tough to determine because he is pretty slow footed, and not extremely quick, but he is too small to play the power forward position.  He has a very high basketball IQ, and does a good job in running his high school offense.  He will most likely be the player of the year in Class B. 

Michigan recruit Derick Walton is also in Class B, but his surrounding teammates do very little to help him out.  It will still be interesting to see how this point guard will lead his team throughout the year.  He is a decent scorer, but needs to work on his outside shooting some.  He will have to be a force on the offensive side of the ball this year if his team has a chance at making the Bres. 

Muskegon Heights will be good again, and a very tough out come tourney time.  They will travel more than any other team in the state just to get all 20 games.  They will likely have 6-8 losses by the end of the year because most of their schedule consists of good Class A and B schools.

The best junior in this class will be competing with Troy's Young for the early choice for the 2013 Mr. Basketball.  Both are top 50 recruits.  Byron Zeigler is a 6'6" wing player as well, so when these two play later this year, it should be a great matchup on both ends of the floor. They meet January 14th at Harper Woods Chandler Park... I dont know where that is.. but happy early birthday to me. :) Another exciting game, which I will be able to go to is on December 30th at Kzoo Central... Central vs Sexton.  I imagine Central will get beat pretty easily, but I just love the way Central plays for their coach and even if they lose they will play extremely tough.

This year's championship game most likely will be a rematch of last season Heights v Sexton with a 20 point Sexton win.. because folks they are that good (45th ranked team in the nation).
