6. Minford
After a regular season unbeaten against in-state opponents, Minford had a disappointing ending to their season in a playoff loss. Junior duo Myles Montgomery Myles Montgomery 5'9" | PG Minford | 2025 State OH and Bennett Kayser Bennett Kayser 6'4" | SF Minford | 2025 State OH are back and they’ll once again be looking to dominate the SOC.
7. Harvest Prep
Another trip to the final four for Harvest Prep, they return some talented guards with Brandon Roddy Brandon Roddy 6'1" | PG Harvest Prep | 2025 State OH as their leader. Khalil Daniels Khalil Daniels 6'3" | SF Harvest Prep | 2025 OH and Adonus Abrams Adonus Abrams 6'2" | SF Harvest Prep | 2024 State OH also provide size and shooting on the wings. Always playing one of the toughest non-conference schedules in Division III, Harvest Prep will once again be challenged thoroughly this winter.
8. Wayne Trace
Winners of one of the craziest district finals last season, Wayne Trace returns star Brooks Laukhuf Brooks Laukhuf 6'2" | CG Wayne Trace | 2024 State OH who is already committed to Ohio Dominican. The Raiders had some impressive wins at the end of the year taking their last seven games prior to a playoff loss to powerhouse Ottawa Glandorf. With the best player on the floor most games, they’ll always have a chance.
9. Malvern
After a 21-1 regular season and returning seniors J’Allen Barrino and Mitchell Minor Mitchell Minor 6'5" | PF Malvern | 2024 State OH , Malvern has one of the top small-town teams in the state. With that duo back, Malvern has another chance to win 20+ regular season games.
10. Martins Ferry
After starting the season 18-1, Martins Ferry struggled down the stretch but have a chance to start fresh with Alex Reese Alex Reese 6'5" | PF Martins Ferry | 2025 State OH and Anthony Booth Anthony Booth 6'3" | SF Martins Ferry | 2026 OH taking bigger roles this winter. If they can recreate the success they had early in the season, they’ll stay in our top 10 this season.
