There are very few teams in CT that can beat a ranked team in NJ (Pope John was ranked #9). let me know your thoughts.

Guard skills a motor and a big mans mentality on defense. He is ready for low to mid major d1 now. I have seen FFP center he is still undeveloped ( but getting better). They also had a freshman guard who was very skilled, and fearless (HH shut him down). This is a big game for FFP not HH a regular day at the office , I Respect your opinion, lets tip it off and see. P.s. this ain’t Career or Hamden. LOL

I know ‘House makes a living on its defense, but Prep’s defense and rebounding has been tough thus far this year. Plus a 7-footer is a lot different from a 6-9 kid. No one has been able to keep up with Prep’s offense, and no one has been able to rebound with it either. I know Hillhouse is a different animal, but my prediction is based on my personal instincts. If I’m wrong, I’ll be the first to admit it!

Hillhouse just played a big man in New Jersey who is 6 foot 9, and way more skilled than the Center for Fairfield Prep. and the Center for Fairfield Prep is really skinny the big boys of Hill House will push him out of the paint. the donation is defense of Hill House will turn this game, Hill House guards are unbelievable and they have a strong supporting cast. Hillhouse wins this game going away, the team in New Jersey is a much better team than a Fairfield prep.

Prep should’ve beaten them– especially after being taken to the wire by Hamden.

Remember, if West Haven takes care of business on Thursday, this whole ordeal will be forgotten.

Prep should have won those games but turnovers killed them and without a legit passing attack, it is tough to come back from being down in the 4th when teams are loading the box with 9 players.

Prep had second half leads in each of those games too.
