Almost all of Anton's games have been ended by the mercy rule, but they really have not been tested. Their only game that was close in score was Petersberg; but, Petersberg seems to be struggling as of late. This begs the question, does the close Anton/Petersberg expose Anton's capability; or, was it just a semi-rival game in which a decent Petersberg team peaked before some tough losses.
Having watched Anton play, I can assure you they are a very good team. The question is are they good enough for a deep playoff run? I personally think so, but we should be able to size them up better next week when they play Ropes.
That is the problem with D1/Region 1 this year. All the best D1/Region 1 teams this year seem to be getting beat by Region 2 or some D2 teams; and/or haven't played any of the same teams in common yet. It's making it difficult to predict how D1/Region 1 is going to play out.
