Early surprises?

[Coach]

How do JV and MU look now? I haven't followed either one since Jan 1

JV just played MU last friday, JV won by 18. MU is sliding, they have outside shooting issues and teams playing a good zone can expose that weakness. Loner is a great player,but cant do it all for them. Also their schedule is brutal. They will make the D6AA field I believe, but they will have to earn it.

JV faded a bit in late Dec/Early Jan. (too much holiday spirit) but the MU game they looked like the team I expected them to be. They have a bad habit of showing up mentally unprepared in some games? Jeckyl and Hyde team, though I will say, JV's two losses aren't too bad, as I said early on I expected Claysburg to be the surprise of the ICC, and Huntingdon is on a 6 game win streak right now, they're hot. JV's jan. schedule is tough with a trip to BG highlighting the month.

I give the edge to JV to win the north by the narrowest of margins, based on there bench depth and experience. They start 2 seniors and 3 juniors, all of which are 2 yr starters or better. The bench is made of 3 seniors and 2 juniors. Claysburg, MU and WB all will have something to say about JV winning the north though.

ICC North first cycle on the line tomorrow nite at Wbrg vs. JV. Should be a good game.

MU is athletic and has good size, depth is their biggest problem... 6 pt game last night 2 min into 3rd... Like dropping a match into tank of diesel fuel rest of the way.

I didnt think MU had much size beyond Trevon Walker. Loner is a beast of a guard. Beyond that, good athletes/role players. MU will have a better second half, as their schedule becomes much more manageable. They had a grind this past half month, playing teams with a combined winning percentage above .800.

JV always has probz going into WilyBurg, seems they always get the calls, and they always get out hustled. This will definitely be a great game to watch. I pick JV by 5.
