The Rams are back in the district title game for just the third time ever and the first time since 2005, while Central York is aiming for its first title.

The high school boys basketball sectional round begins on Tuesday with 403 teams competing at 64 sectional sites. Let’s take a closer look at the Class 3A field with the local matchups, players to watch and predictions (and find my statewide picks for Class 3A below): Defending champion: Scottsburg (now playing in 4A via tournament success factor) Plenty of contenders: We’ve written about this a lot but Class 3A is absolutely loaded.

The Eagles made it to the Class 3A Final Four after they defeated Saint Andrew's 74-53. Cayden Daughtry led the Eagles with 21 points while shooting 88 percent. He is also the second leading scorer on the team with 16 points per game.

Buzz: The Eagles have certainly been battle-tested in their run to Hershey. With two overtime wins, Exeter has proven capable of winning in the clutch. A defensive team, the group is headed by guard Aidan Dauble, a do-it-all junior scoring guard who will likely go head-to-head with Sweeney.

Here are the schedules, players to watch and our predictions for each Springfield area Class 4 district for high school boys' basketball.
