Expectations for Montverde Academy in 2019-20

National Championships and Montverde Basketball seem to go hand in hand lately. With the current roster, it looks to be National Championship game or bust again. With their roster it is hard to see anyone in the high school ranks giving them much of a challenge. Montverde does have an extremely challenging schedule, which is expected given their prestige and their current roster.

The schedule for the current season has yet to be released but when it is released, expect the schedule to have a good mix of teams from across the country. A season ago Montverde played La Lumiere, Sierra Canyon and Sunrise Christian Academy. These games were all en route to a 22-3 overall record and an appearance in the National Title game. In that game, they lost to another Florida powerhouse in IMG Academy. Many would like a rematch in the regular season between the two schools.

The amount of talent and the caliber of teams the Eagles play every game, expect the gym to be loaded with college basketball coaches trying to catch a glimpse of their next star. Fans should be prepared to watch a faster-paced game than most high school games. That tends to happen with the uptick in the talent level.
