The top 1 or 2 teams in Carroll, AA, Howard, Baltimore, and Harford county can play a close game with most of the IAAM A . They all have talent and many have quality coaching. Where they lack is depth. One injury to a major player and they drop considerably. Private schools have always gotten a ton of talent from AA, Baltimore, and Howard. The last 3 or 4 years they have gotten a lot more talent from Carroll and Harford, so those teams are not quite as strong as in the past. After the top 8-12 public schools in the state there is a major drop off. |
