Southern should be every bit as strong as last year and should repeat as area champ. Graduated Rodeheaver boy who was POY but may miss their other guard more who handled the press. They do have some nice players to fill in and this team's scorers may perhaps be even more productive than last years. Added a soph who is a good bball player and even better baseball pitcher.
Northern will be talented as well , but will miss the Rush kid who was injured during football. They have some good athletes especially on the outside. I really don't know much about the Ridge this year but I'd expect Frankfort to be very good as well as they have had that good junior class which has been successful in the past. FH usually gets such a late start due to their late football playoff runs, but Stubbs will be good I'm sure.
