Class A, B, C, D predictions for this year??
A. Mamaroneck will take down Scarsdale. Mamaroneck will have more possessions than previous years and that will give them the edge. Look out for Carmel though. They are an experienced squad that could make some noise and potentially make the final.
B. Yorktown will take down Somers. Somers will have some fight but it will be tough to score against Yorktown in 2024. Greeley will be good but is 1 year away. They are talented but I am not sure if their coach is any good despite what the people on this forum say.
C. Rye will roll in Class C. I think John Jay is good but is nowhere near as talented as Rye. Their goalie will need to have the game of his life if they want to take down the Garnets. Pelham has a chance to upset Jay but it’s unlikely.
D. This is Pleasantville’s year, the whole team returns after going 19-2. It’s state title or bust and their brutal regular season schedule will prepare them for CSH. Bronxville and Haldane will battle to face them in the chip. I give the edge to Bronxville because of the goalie.
A - Scarsdale will always be strong and while this is a rebuild year for them, they're still one of the top teams in Section 1. But this is Mamo's year to make it happen. I don't see anyone else topping them in A. Carmel will be a formidable force, but they aren't quite there yet, but don't be surprised if they have some eyebrow-raising wins. Arlington same thing.
B - It's Yorktown then everyone else. Somers might be the only team to challenge them, but I don't see the streak of consecutive finals appearances ending this year. There might be some surprise upsets during the season, but unless there is a fluke in the rankings, Yorktown/Somers is your B final
C - It's Rye. That's the take. They are stacked and no one in C is going to top them. The best team that has the chance is John Jay, but they better get it done this year. Pelham always makes it interesting, but I wouldn't expect to see Rye play a large Section 1 schedule this year, they need to test themselves an prep for states.
D - Pleasentville and Bronxville, who I believe is still without a Head Coach. P'ville reloads so I think they are everyone's target this year, but I don't know who has the firepower to upend them. Haldane and Briarcliff should keep things interesting.
