Way too Early NOT OFFICIAL Basketball Rankings.

Written Tuesday October 22nd at 3:20 PM

These are NOT the official top ten basketball rankings. These are the rankings that I've heard or seen before the season starts in a month.

Boys

1. Groves- Falcons have the makings of a special season.

2. Clarkston- Wolves have a ton of proven experience coming back.

3. West Bloomfield- Losing Drew Wilson hurts the Lakers but they are still going to be very good.

4. North Farmington- What to expect from the Raiders is the question.

5. Ferndale- Eagles need to get by Warren Lincoln if they want to realize their goals.

6. Lake Orion- The Dragons might have their the deepest team since 2018-2019.

7. Oxford- Senior experience is key to the Wildcats success.

8. Avondale- Yellow Jackets have the guards, interior is a question mark.

9. Adams- Highlanders will be a little different this season.

10. Troy- Colts have the star in Mason Parker, who steps up is the question mark.

TEAMS TO WATCH: Pontiac, Berkley, Rochester, Stoney Creek, Seaholm, Bloomfield Hills.

Girls

1. West Bloomfield- Still the champs but it will be different for the Lakers.

2. Stoney Creek-Curious to see how the Cougars do without Sarah LaPriarie.

3. Royal Oak- Ravens still have talent to be one of the best teams.

4. Clarkston- Wolves have the guards, size is the question mark.

5. Lake Orion- Dragons depth will be key to having a successful season.

6. Ferndale- New division, tougher schedule, higher expectations. Questions with depth and program strength surrounds the Eagles.

7. Troy- Probably the most dangerous team in the league this season.

8. Seaholm- Maples have a ton of veteran experience that is primed to make noise.

9. Rochester- Falcons have a new coach with two really good bigs, the guards are still the question.

10. Avondale-Yellow Jackets have a lot of proven talent coming back which makes them the favorite in the Blue.
