re: Top CSAL Basketball Teams of the Past 15 Years

Well this brings up an interesting question:

Which league is tougher:
CSAL - zone defense allowed, mandatory play for 6th-7th grade, press restrictions in some tournys
St. George, STM, Sacred Heart, Mercy, St. Alphonsus, St. Jude, Holy Ghost, etc

ISAA - no zone allowed, no press restrictions, no mandatory play
Southern Lab, Christian Life, Baker, Northwestern, Parkview, U-High, Episcopal, West Feliciana, Dunham, Clinton, Bethany, Jackson, Walker (6th), Denham (6th), CSAL (yes there's a school named this and they are damn good, 8th only)

I think it's obvious that the ISAA is incredibly more tough. There is tons of depth, extremely athletic players on each team, no zone d makes you have to be able to guard the super athletic kids without sitting back in a zone, no mandatory play ensures that the best players are usually on the court
