The 2022-23 Twitter Previews
Belvidere North: Potential to win the most games in school history. Top returners are Ethan Andre, Adam Brown, Joseph Brown, Nick Winters. Strong shooting and handling. Need to improve on defending and rebounding.
Hersey: Returns the vast majority of their scoring from a young team last season. Versatile post Jackson Hupp and All-MSL Johnny Ryg lead a variety of returning players. May be plagued by a deep football run early on, but should be deep, tough, and defensive-minded.
Lisle: New coach Andrew Weber has one starter back, Chris Farrell, from an 18-12 team. Big things expected from seniors Casey Rosenberg, Matt Williamson, Jude Peters, Zach Ebert and Dom Nigro. Junior class is athletic.
Schaumburg: Coach Jason Tucker takes over. Sophomore guards Jordan Tunis and Javonte McCoy will start. Good size with 6-8 Edvin Bosnjak, 6-7 Clark Easley and 6-6 Tyler March. Building year, program is loaded with young talent.
