SOUTH SUBURBAN RED

Outlook: Eisenhower’s use of the high-speed Massey system, with lineup changes every minute, should keep opposing defenses off-balance.

Top five players: Tyrone Terrell, Eisenhower, G, Jr.; Jovone Shorter, Richards, G, Sr.; Martece Weatherspoon, Shepard, G, Sr.; Isaac Bronaugh, Eisenhower, G, So.; Brian Townsend, Evergreen Park, F, Sr.

Keep an eye on: Jacob Campbell, Oak Lawn, G, Sr.

Did you know? Richards’ 10-17 record last season was its first sub-.500 mark since 2002-03 (10-16).

Quote: “Terrell, if anybody does, gets the most playing time. He’s a double-shifter.” – Richards coach John Chappetto.

Predicted finish: Eisenhower, Richards, Shepard, Oak Lawn, Reavis, Evergreen Park, Argo.
