I am really impressed with a couple of things I take away from looking at these statistics:

6'0" Seth Stockton of Clinton County averaging over 12 rebounds per game. Let's face it, in high school if you are listed at 6'0", you are more than likely only about 5'10" or 5'11". Even more impressive.

Four players averaging over 30 points per game.

Covington Catholic can really shoot the basketball. I have not seen them yet this season, but shooting nearly 56% as a team from the field and 45% from distance is phenomenal.

It is extremely impressive to watch it in person.

Covington Catholic had one of the most efficient teams I’ve ever seen win a state championship a few years ago. Very well coached. I’m sure this team operates the same way.

Agreed...
