With due respect to Kentucky, I'm going to cast my vote for the Tempe Knights. Last year showed that the team had a long path to take on the road to contention. While I'm not about to imagine that the Knights will be contending this year, I think their early record in an indication that the right steps are being taken in Tempe. Chris Van Hauter has been extremely diligent in his efforts to improve the team and I think we're going to slowly but surely continue to see the effects of the moves he's making. I'm additionally impressed by the fact that Tempe's doing this in the extremely challenging Desert Hills division (although the same can be said about Kentucky and the Dixie division). Hats off to both teams for the progress they've made.
