[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School year is starting up soon so I thought I would drop my rankings for this spring.

1. Bullis- very solid 2023 class and an elite 2025 class. My favorite for the IAC champs. 
2. Sjc- lost a lot with their 2022 class leaving but still have the best goalie fogo and attackmen in the area. My favorite for the wcac champs. Not a lot of competition in the wcac. 
3. Landon- elite 2024 class. Overall a very good team. 
4. Prep- so much talent across the board. Will the infamous madlax dc dogs be able to put it together this year? 
5. STA- they have really made a name for themselves with an elite 2023 class. Dark horse for the IAC this year. 
6. Dematha- very good 2023 and 2024 class and seem to have put themselves in a good spot. 
7. Gonzaga- could be a dark horse for the wcac. Their 2024 class will have to carry the team with a weak 2023 class. 
8- Pvi- they have lost a lot of depth and key players. They have a solid 2023 class and have a chance to make some noise. 
9- SSSAS- lost almost their whole team and all of their talent and have the weakest senior class behind Gonzaga. Don’t really have any expectations for them. 
10- EHS- have one good player going to uva. That’s about it.

Neutral observer here.

1. SJC - until someone dethrones them, they should remain #1 in the area. They won't go undefeated in 2023 but will be the favorite to repeat as champs in WCAC. 
2. Bullis - solid 2023 class and a loaded 2025 class.... Is Tucker Wade moving on from Bullis, or is he coming back for his 6th year of HS after a semester in Australia?
3. Prep - very strong 2023 class. Mac Christmas is not the lost people think he is, as Crowe is just as good. The biggest issue facing Prep next Spring will be face-offs. Mac Eldrige was the best in the country last year - very hard to replace a kid of his caliber. 
4. Landon - deep and talented 2024 class, weak 2023 class. The Bears are a year away from being heavy contenders in the IAC
5. Gonzaga - same as above, but will contend with SJC for the top in the WCAC. 
6. DeMatha - if there is a year for the Stags to make it to the WCAC finals, the Spring of 2023 is the year. 
7. STA - 2023 is the year the Bulldogs finally crack the top 4 of the IAC.. It will be tough to score on STA next Spring but don't think they have a potent offense to contend
8. St Stephens - despite the graduation losses, the Saints are very well coached and will contend again for a VISSA state title. 
9. Paul Vi - always athletic but coaching has been a major issue over the years. Panthers have the depth and speed to run with most teams but coaching crushes them. 
10. Episcopal - I hope Conklin brought in some Canadian transfers this off-seaosn as the Maroon have zero depth.

Overall thoughts - I think the area takes a step back next year. The 2023 classes overall are not the greatest.

Agree with 1 and 2 and your last thought.

The class of 23 is full of 2022s that couldn’t hang so reclassed.  [/quote]

very true!

Bullis best place has re-classified twice - should have graduated with the class of 2020. [/quote]
