Baer has to do it vs Alex and Athens to be the no doubt choice....he can be the favorite but to say it’s not close is hard to completely agree with
already play alexander twice
How did Baer do in those games? How was Kearns?

Athens @ Alex May be the best barometer yet. Next Friday at the Alley. Who steps it up?

As far as Alex goes, I have to take Mecum over Kearns because of his consistency, hustle and defense. Just an all around solid player!!

J.K. Kearns had 24 for Alexander vs Athens
Weston Baer had 13 for Meigs vs Athens
Both teams play Athens again.
Maxfield led Athens vs Alex with 11
Maxfield led Athens vs Meigs with 21

So I have a good back story. Overheard some parents talking and found out that Justin Hynes from Athens who could have started last night for Senior night gave his spot up so that Gauge Penrod who is another Senior but doesn’t get much playing time, could get the start. I don’t know about the rest of you but to me that is Character. That is a POY in my eyes. Just my 2 cents.

Yes!! That is a great topic by the way! Gauge had a great night last night also. Think he scored around 8.

Unlike Athens, Meigs doesn't have 5 POY candidates. It's tough to defend a team with 5 POY candidates. Baer draws defenses focused on stopping him primarily. Still performs. That has to count for something.

The few box scores I’ve seen Cleland has been excellent

Cleland for sure a special player and only a freshman. I foresee him being a POY over next couple of years, Arbaugh is also young and already in the discussion. Baer has one more year and is a Frontrunner on many lists.

Cleland is a really solid player. No doubt. Still not the same as having 5-6 Athens POY candidates.
I guess my point is that having 5-6 quality players on one team makes it easier for individuals to shine. Typically the other teams in the TVC aren't double teaming or scheming to stop any one of them. Having a team with 2-3 players of that caliber affords the opportunity to primarily focus on 2-3 threats instead of 5. The 2-3 draw more defensive focus most nights.

All true. On the flip side having 5-6 talented players and there is no way there are enough shots for everyone. With 1 or 2 they are always getting around 15 shots I’d guess.
If Baer can shine vs Athens he’ll definitely win.

I would not use the word definitely.
He's a good player, but hasn't separated himself that much.
The league also has a history of giving P.O.Y to the league champion.
Like I said earlier, who ever wins Friday in Albany has not only the inside track on the league championship, but the player of the year as well.
