These look solid. Based on what I’ve heard John Jay may be too highly ranked though.
The way Syosset has been playing of late you can argue they belong below GC if though they beat GC.
I agree that GC should be ahead of Syosset. That’s a mistake on our parts, but one we can live with. Also, CSH should be high up in the Nassau regional rankings instead of not in top 5 at all. We need to stop watching college hoops and playing capture the flag at Joe’s compound while we make these rankings. LOL.
You can make arguments both ways. I’ve seen them both like Joe has amd at this point I give Syosset the edge too.
Syosset, Rocky Point, Mt. Sinai all too high IMO. Syosset just doesn’t have it this year. RP doesn’t have Tom P. and Mt. Sinai lost CHapman.
