As the page gets turned to the final month of the season, the ISL boys basketball championship picture is clear.
Defending ISL champion St. George’s – with a 8-0 league mark after Wednesday’s win over Nobles – has cemented itself at the top again. The Dragons’ pursuit of back-to-back titles will be decided over the next several weeks, with their remaining ISL games coming against BB&N, Roxbury Latin, Milton Academy, St. Mark’s, Tabor, Belmont Hill and Middlesex.
If St. George’s trips up, several teams are on their tail. Lawrence Academy (8-1) and Milton Academy (5-1) are in the best position to take advantage, with Milton having that head-to-head opportunity on Feb. 18. Lawrence and Milton face off on Feb. 13, which will affect the race, too. St. Mark’s is the only other team within realistic striking distance, with two ISL losses to date.
So, who shined in January in ISL action? We debuted our inaugural ISL stars of the month in December, headlined by our first Player of the Month, Lawrence Academy wing Alex Egbuonu. Let’s check out the honorees for January.
