Outlook: They have a low-stick that Saint Anthony's doesn't, and it makes them dangerous depending on how much they can close their compression.

Outlook: Just like Sacred Heart, its all about how much the back end can close the gap to the front, as having the defending Champ leading the way doesn't hurt your scoring.
