We will say one thing and that is that Murray has some young talent stockpiled that could develop nicely into a contending team for years. The top 4 teams last season had a good run but Murray surprised everyone with a deep run in the playoffs. It wasn’t that they just had a good coach, they had some good talent that was playing well at the right time.
The player that we are most excited to see next season is Chudi Anosike Chudi Anosike 6'5" | CG Murray | 2023 State UT the 6’4 freshman who people think we are sleeping on is a player to watch. We expect Murray to make a jump from 4th place to true contender for 1st next season.
Brighton and East will be tough as well as they both return some quality talent. East has another young freshman to keep an eye on and that is Eric Doe who has that old school feel to his game as he brings the energy and straight to business style.
Olympus has a young sophomore that has a promising career ahead of him in Jack Wistrcill Jack Wistrcill 6'8" | PF Olympus | 2022 State UT who is 6’6 and skilled. Look for Ben Krystowiak Ben Krystowiak 6'4" | CG Brighton | 2021 State UT to take it up a notch as Olympus looks to make a soli
Hillcrest will rely heavily on Trajen Iorg Trajen Iorg 6'4" | CG Hillcrest | 2021 UT . Highland will be looking at Elijah Tolbert Elijah Tolbert 6'2" | PG Highland | 2022 State UT to rely pick up the scoring load as well. Each one of these teams has a shot to surprise teams but we will see.
Cottonwood has some young players that can make an impact. Aidan Oliphant is a solid player that should be much improved next season and be able to keep Cottonwood competitive.
Skyline is a team that should improve as well. They have some young talent as well.
We will say one thing about Region 6 and it is that regardless of record their teams will compete and play hard. This is why their teams do well in the playoffs. With the new RPI format it always goes well for their teams.
