Division V-A--(Jan. 12, 2003)

This is going to sound like old news, but we've gotten used to saying it: This division is all about Price. Oh, and then there's Price. And Price. Oh, did we tell you, Price is the No. 1 team in the division? Seriously, once you get past the Knights, there's not a lot else in this division that will seriously challenge for a title, which is unfortunate for the other 81 teams in the division, but hey, that's life. We've gone with 20 teams, but like picking horses at the start of a race, sometimes you know the horse, other times, you just like the jockey's colors, or the horse's name.... Again, remember, this is just for fun....About records: We certainly don't have records for everyone in this division, nor do we have time to track them all down, because for the most part, about half the teams won't be playing past February, but having said that, we've listed the teams we think are the cream of the crop and those most likely to give Price some kind of a run this year. We also will be the first to admit that we've only seen a fraction of these teams. We do see more small school games than most people who follow HS hoops, but sometimes that's not saying much, when you've got a division with 82 teams in it.

Again, we admit we've been having difficulty with team results and records, so if we're off on a couple of teams, just remember, this is for fun only.... Where a team's record was not found, they have gone unranked. And that's not a good thing, so if you know a team's record which isn't shown, and which is preventing us from ranking them higher (or at all), let us know, because the newspapers sure aren't doing it all this season....
