I have Miami Trace falling lower, they might not be .500. with the best player in the area transferring to Kettering Alter, losing 5 Sr's which 4 of those were starters, and probably one of the best bigs in the area Guthrie coming off a football injury might be a rough go for trace.....they do however have some pieces Trey Robinette, Sky Salyers, and Luke Armstrong.....losing Grant Guess is a huge hit....now with a healthy Guthrie and if Guess returned they would've easily beat out Jackson in the area and won the FAC.
Losing Guess does hurt the Panthers, in my opinion would have been a top 5 player in the FAC. Guthrie, Robinette, Salyers and Julian Baker is a solid core for Coach Ackley. Connor Napier is a solid shooter and they have a couple freshman in Gage Bowers and Carter Davidson who could make an impact at some point this season. I don't know the Armstrong kid so I can't speak to his ability.
I think if the Panthers stay healthy, they will win 13-15 games. I don't see them being under .500, but that's just my opinion.
Looks like you should be right , I don't see MT losing more than 5 games if healthy.
Davidson most likely will not dress varsity, the Napier kid has fallen further on the depth chart, he had really productive sophomore year on JV thought he would have a larger role this year on the team.
Bowers is starting as a freshman, Armstrong and Whitaker are the 1st off the bench
