State Tourney Preview- 3A

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This bracket is brutal and this is one where the RPI might have not gotten it all right as some of the better teams in the classification played a very strong schedule against 6A and 5A teams and now they are lower seeds. Let's take a look. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>The 3 Favorites</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Morgan is a much deserved #1 as they have been able to knock off a lot of team to this point. They have a solid group and will be lead by two really good players in [player_tooltip player_id='2388587' first='Bracken' last='Saunders'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1571773' first='Kolton' last='Asay']. With a 21-1 record and their only loss is to Green Canyon by 1 and their best win of the season is against American Heritage. They have a solid core in [player_tooltip player_id='2731117' first='Jake' last='Hansen'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1978925' first='Mason' last='Williams'] as well as [player_tooltip player_id='1541950' first='Nate' last='Pace']. This team will be tough to deal with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>American Heritage is another team that could run the table as they are led by Mana Winitanta a mini version of Russell Westbrook and Rajon Rando when it comes to attacking and creating for others. With losses to Provo, Lone Peak and timpview they are going to be battle tested. They will need players like Brady Peeery and Weston Larsen to come up huge if they want to make a run. They will also need good shooting from [player_tooltip player_id='2422947' first='Jackson' last='Black'] to spread the floor. They will likely see Morgan in the next round of the playoffs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Judge Memorial is looking to make it a 2-Peat as hey have a few good teams standing in their way. Juan Diego and Weber might be ther best wins of the season. If this team is healthy they could be an issue for most teams in 3A as nobody will have an answer for [player_tooltip player_id='1146662' first='JJ' last='Apathjang'] a player that can take over with elite iso skills. With f 4 other players that a near double figures Judge could be ready to make another run. [player_tooltip player_id='1568003' first='Deng' last='Deng'] has been playing well as has [player_tooltip player_id='1614839' first='Aymen' last='Ismail']. Judge is dangerous and there will be no teams taking the 7 seed lightly. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Dark Horse</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>South Summit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Delta</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Players to Watch</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These are players that have not been previously mentioned.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2296177' first='Logan' last='Woolstenhulme'] || South Summit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2367757' first='Felps' last='Sanders'] || Canyon View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1714148' first='Ty' last='Attig'] || Canyon View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2721993' first='Austin' last='Park'] || Juab </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1960192' first='Mason' last='Robinson'] || Delta</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
