TEAM PREVIEW:
A Flo40 center. A backcourt full of Division I prospects and commits. From top to bottom, The Patrick School is stacked across the board. Former Rutgers coach Mike Rice has a wealth of talent that must form its identity early. Is this the year The Patrick School gets over the hump to take down rival St. Anthony for a state title? Only time will tell, but the Celtics have the pieces to rise in the rankings throughout the season.
