KEYS TO VICTORY
Baltimore County is stacked this season with four public schools ranked in The Sun’s Top 15 poll and a couple others in contention. While No. 1 Perry Hall, last year’s Class 4A state champions, is the favorite to repeat as Baltimore County champion, Woodlawn and Milford Mill are not far off. An indication as to just how close the teams might be comes Wednesday when they meet at Milford Mill. Both are senior-laden teams that believe this can be a special season if everything falls into place. The visiting Warriors lean on Brinkley’s smart decisions at the point to control the flow while Garrison and Warren consistently produce at both ends of the floor. The guard-oriented Millers are quick and relentless, led by the sharp-shooting Obasi. Expect a close game, putting a premium on taking care of the basketball and getting good shots.
