TEAM PREVIEW:
Recapture the CHSAA City Championship. That's the starting mission for Christ the King after falling in the Catholic league's semifinals to Bishop Loughlin last season. A team accustomed to winning -- claiming three city crowns and two New York Federation titles in the last four years -- the Royals boast a strong core that hopes to return to form. Led by reigning CHSAA "AA" Player of the Year Jose Alvarado, who averaged 17 points and 6.5 assists per game in 2015-16, Christ the King also has highly touted big man Kofi Cockburn, versatile workhorse Jared Harrison-Hunte, and combo guard Tyson Walker for a balanced attack. However, other players need to step up in order for the Royals to reach their goal.
