STORYLINES* Connor and Patrick McCaffery are the sons of Iowa Hawkeyes men's basketball coach Fran McCaffery. Connor averaged 15.3 points, 5.6 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game as a junior en route to first team Class 4A All-State honors. Patrick, a cancer survivor, was regarded as one of the state's best freshman a year ago and really turned heads at the Pangos All-Midwest Frosh/Soph Camp in October.
* The Trojans should be hungry to reclaim the throne in Iowa after three-peat state titles in 2012, 2013 and 2014. West reached the semifinals in 2015 and lost in last year's final to West Des Moines Valley 46-39. The program has six state titles all-time.
