Preseason Player of Year
Jayden Johnson (Batavia)
Johnson is among the most underappreciated players in the state. He is going to put up insane numbers this season for Batavia as he is an absolute sniper from beyond the arc. Moves well without the ball, crafty scoring off the bounce, and makes others better! He has a chip on his shoulder heading into the season and is going to take it out on his opponents.
Preseason Conference Favorite
St. Charles North is pretty clearly the favorites in our eyes. They have an inside-outside combo of Connor Linke and Luke Scheffers which is one of the best in Illinois. Not too many legit bigs like Linke that will rebound and anchor inside on both ends. Scheffers is a perfect complement to Linke being able to pass, work around ball screens, and hit pull ups.
