Location: Mount Pleasant, Utah
18-19 Record: 28-4
Final Super 25 Rank: 10

Why them: The Tigers earned a berth to GEICO Nationals this past season because of the players’ chemistry and ability; that bodes well for their chances next season with stacked cast of returners including the Rickie Saunders, Mike Saunders, Leonardo Colimerio, Caleb Lohner and Mady Sissoko.

Wasatch was hard to stop with multiple players capable of having big games on any given night. Despite losing three Div. 1-bound athletes, opposing defenses will have the same headache with so many key Tigers coming back next season.
