<p>Lyons<br><br>The Western Suburban Conference is super deep and has a lot of team that could go here, but we are going to go with a bit of surprise with Lyons. We like the depth and how they fit in together. [player_tooltip player_id='2399391' first='Owen' last='Carroll'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2839879' first='Timmy' last='Sloan'] are a veteran backcourt that can both pass and score. [player_tooltip player_id='2415542' first='Nathan' last='Woods'] brings the sharp shooting from deep with size. [player_tooltip player_id='2538631' first='Grant' last='Smith'] is a D1 prospect in the 2028 class that plays above the rim, shoots it from deep, and is a quality defender. [player_tooltip player_id='2675420' first='Quinn' last='Carroll'] has star potential as a freshman. Lyons tends to not play incoming freshman so we will see if he gets some tick.</p>

<p>Hinsdale Central<br><br>One of the most consistent programs out there is Hinsdale Central. Another quality squad this year with their go to player being shooting guard [player_tooltip player_id='2408504' first='Cole' last='Bero']. [player_tooltip player_id='1552421' first='Kris' last='Dowell']<br>and Nicholas Schubkegal are two more prospects to watch.</p>

<p>Downers Grove South<br><br>DGS has senior scorer in [player_tooltip player_id='2323275' first='Adam' last='Flowers'] who posts consistently. He is a three level scorer that can get buckets in bunches. [player_tooltip player_id='2617411' first='Kaleb' last='Istvanik'] is another quality senior wing that is skilled and a big time shooter from deep. [player_tooltip player_id='1552395' first='Sean' last='Day'] is the player that brings all of this together.</p>

<p>Downers Grove North<br><br>With DGN we are buying the coach and program. You know what you are getting. They will defend at a high level and run good stuff offensively. [player_tooltip player_id='2750033' first='Colin' last='Doyle'] should be their top player while it is worth monitoring [player_tooltip player_id='2839902' first='Jacob' last='Vroman'] and Jack Romsey.</p>

<p>Glenbard West<br><br>Josh Abushunab is the top senior in the conference. He is a big combo forward that is coming off a strong summer with both his high school team and on the Prep Hoops Circuit. Plus shooter that has always been looked at as a three and D wing took a major step in his game with his improved all-around game including ball handling.<br></p>

<p>York<br><br>The Dukes traditionally win a lot of games. They were competitive when we saw them over the summer led by [player_tooltip player_id='1552402' first='Ethan' last='Iacob'] and Will O'Leary.</p>
