Cushing and Worcester are the favorites in Class AA this year.  But don’t tell Tilton that.  Because if recent prep school history tells us anything, it’s that underestimating Marcus O’Neil’s club is a mistake.  The Rams have won three championships and been to five finals in the last nine years and even a National Prep Championship back in 2009.  Year in and year out they are perennial contenders in Class AA and simultaneously develop the individual prospects on their team. … READ MORE >
