Illinois Preps Insider’s girls basketball top-20: 2019-20 Week 2
Well, we said everything was up for grabs this season.
All the teams from 18 to what would be 25 if we went that far have all beat up on each other, which makes things really difficult in the early weeks of the season.
Surprisingly enough though, the top 15 have been very stable. I get that Thanksgiving tournaments aren’t typically the most difficult schedules in the world, but the important thing is those teams are taking care of business.
We also really haven’t talked about Benet much despite them being ranked number one since the start of the season. Honestly, that’s probably a good thing for the Redwings because if we were to mention them by this point of the season, it probably means they suffered a surprising loss.
Half of these teams play at Fremd on Saturday. If you happen to have some free time this weekend, head up to Palatine for an entire days worth of basketball.
