The 3AA Rundown
This might be the most fun section in Class AA and one of the most fun sections on all of high school basketball this year. Why? Because Morris Area and Redwood Valley will look entirely new. They are hard to predict because they lost so much. Also, West Central Area is a really good program and we think that this year could be one of their best years, plus the section sets up well for them to make a run. And not just them. JCC has a lot of talent returning, New London-Spicer has a lot returning, Eden Valley-Watkins has a lot returning, and so does Paynesville. Whichever team stays healthy and finds the right chemistry will likely emerge as the favorite entering March and then all bets are off as anything can happen. Overall, this should be a really fun section.
