THE FAVORITE – Waunakee
There was a lot of off-season turmoil in Waunakee, including a shocking change at head coach. Think the Warriors will rally around that. Waunakee gets both its stars back in Keaton Frisch Keaton Frisch 6'7" | SF Waunakee | 2024 State WI (11.4 ppg) and Jake Bova Jake Bova 6'2" | SG Waunakee | 2024 WI (11.9 ppg), a pair of seniors. Junior Eli Selk Eli Selk 6'3" | SG Waunakee | 2025 State WI (8.8) is also one of the best shooters in the league.
DARK HORSE – Monona Grove
The Silver Eagles were 17-9 last season, but just 7-7 in league play. With Stoughton moving to the Badger Small, think there’s a few more wins coming MG’s way in 2023-24. The Eagles get two of their top three scorers back in seniors Isaiah Erb Isaiah Erb 6'2" | SG Monona Grove | 2024 WI (13.1 ppg) and Emmett Toijala Emmett Toijala 6'2" | PG Monona Grove | 2024 WI (9.8 ppg)

PRESEASON PLAYER OF THE YEAR – Ayden Goll
Goll had a breakout junior season, averaging 15 points and four assists per game. That was for a Milton team that featured a few college prospect seniors on its roster. With the Redhawks losing two double-digit scorers, Goll will be counted on greatly to keep his team afloat.
