Wow, Poly was the only team with two players on the team and didn't even make the state playoffs. What does that mean?
It means that Poly was a great team that happened to have a shitty game on the worst night possible.
Some teams had great seasons even better than those that didn't have any top players mentioned. What does that mean?
