I like numbers.  Always have, and I understand at times you can make them say whatever you’d like.  But there’s also truth in numbers, and in the sports world analytics are taking over.

These numbers certainly aren’t to that extent, but provide a look at individuals, and teams in a few important categories.  We can see that Mechanicville likes to shoot three’s, and that Greenwich has two of the top 10 scorers in the Wasaren, and as always the numbers show us that the Valley can guard.

While certain numbers are more important to team success, most all will play a role in determining a league champion at season’s end.
