1. Delaware – The Pacers look to fill the major hole that Khalil Iverson leaves, but we expect senior Zach McIntire and junior Will Yoakum to provide Delaware with enough to finish at the top of the division. Always well-coached and disciplined, Delaware will compete with New Albany at the top.
2. New Albany – Another team losing quite a bit of pieces from last season, New Albany will be interesting to watch. Look for seniors Joey Rolwing and Bryson London to pace the Eagles, while senior Tariq Hutcherson is a player to keep an eye on. As always, New Albany will need to be consistent to get to where they should get to.
3. Olentangy – After an up-and-down season last year, Olentangy is looking to climb out of third place in the Capital division. Back is senior point guard Seth O’Neal, who is one of the most underrated players in the area. Senior guards Christian and Brandon Mazzeo will also be key contributors for the Braves.
4. Olentangy Orange – A team we are high on this season, look for Orange to make strides in 2015-16. Senior big man Grant Gossard is one of the area’s best second-tier post players, while we are also excited about senior guard Colin Shepherd.
5. Worthington Kilbourne – A team that we might have too low, Kilbourne is a team that is always well-coached and disciplined. Look for junior forward Carson Van Lynn to have a big year for the Wolves.
6. Big Walnut – Remember the name — Austin Becker. The sophomore guard can do it all!
7. Franklin Heights – Rough times for the Franklin Heights program. A brand-new big gym is the bright spot right now for the Falcons.
