Are you ready?
The busiest time of the year is nearly upon us. Yep, just a few short weeks remain until the all-out sprint of the NEPSAC playoffs is here.
You know what that means. It's time to break down where things stand in the Elite 8 race before the stretch run.
When we did this last year, Thayer was the projected seventh seed in the Elite 8, and Groton was 10th in the JSPR. By regular season's end, Groton was in the top tournament, and Thayer was the No. 1 seed in the Large School field. Phillips Andover was the projected seventh seed. They got in at No. 5 and made a run to the championship game.
Needless to say, plenty can happen between now and the playoffs.
Let’s take stock of the top 16 teams in the projected final JSPR on the morning of Thursday, Feb. 5.
