Preseason Power Rankings

For this year's rankings, we talked to one player from each team to help us identify their teams' strengths and weaknesses, then we provided our own take on the quote. See if you can guess which player made the comment, then check the answer key at the bottom to see how many you got right.

1. Farringdon Vortex

Roster: John Michael Rigas, Clayton Wilson, Ethan Hite, Scott Furman, and Kyle Bova

Quote: "Was I the first pick?"

The Vortex are easily the most talented team, but they may have some alpha dog issues.

2. Back Road Packers

Roster: Garrett Russell, Andrew Rigas, JT Maynard, Alex Hershey, and Josiah Ott

Quote: "I went to goat rehab this offseason. I never knew that so many other people had the same problem as me. They didn't want the withdrawal to be too bad, so they gave me a series of smaller and smaller mammals to care for. I've been through dogs, cats, foxes, and bats."
Hint: http://coudersportminihoopleague.blogspot.com/2012/03/mr-maxnords-farm.html

This player's well-publicized improvement made him one of the most expensive players in the draft, and he should help the Packers to a successful season.

3.  Rubbertown Gloves

Roster: Tim McCusker, Colin Mahon, Forest Tuttle, Caden Whitman, and Mitch Freeman

Qupte: "Nobody even boobs fell out."

The Gloves will be a great rebounding and defensive team, but their Wonderlics leave something to be desired.

4. Woodlawn Woodchucks

Roster: Alex Furman, Darren Keglovitz, Michael Chambers, Jesse Lincoln, and Philip Andrus

Quote: "He's a monster!" (Referring to Darren Keglovitz' 77-inch wingspan)

Darren and Philip Andrus will need to have productive seasons for the Woodchucks to do better than last year's debacle.

5. Route 6 Rancheros

Roster: Alex Hutcheson, Jeremy Sedorchuck, Jacob Lincoln, Zach Cumby, and Jason Betrand

Quote: "I hate Bertrand."

The Rancheros have the potential to be a very good team, but they may have some chemistry issues.

6. Hebron 28ers

Roster: Chris Rigas, Kyle Clay, Aaron Van Sickles, Jeffery McManus, and Zach Elenchin

Quote: "How could you do this to me Twaan?"

Even their own players know that the 28ers are in for an uphill battle after their captain, Chris Rigas, failed miserably in the draft.












Answer Key: 1. Ethan Hite, 2. JT Maynard, 3. Mitch Freeman, 4. Jesse Lincoln, 5. Jacob Lincoln, 6. Jeffery McManus
