Which team stacks up the best?

The spring season is coming to an end with a number of teams looking to close out banner seasons. A few stand out above the rest:

The McDonogh girls lacrosse team is 18-1 heading into Thursday's Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference semifinals and have been dominant this season against area competition.

Can the Gilman boys lacrosse team, which had one midseason hiccup against Boys' Latin, snag the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference championship that eluded the team by one goal last year?

In softball, No. 1 Broadneck and No. 2 Seton Keough will try to complete perfect seasons.

The fall season had Dunbar, Loyola and River Hill dominate on the gridiron, Centennial finish perfect in volleyball and the McDonogh boys soccer team go undefeated in the demanding IAAM A Conference.

The winter season brought flawless basketball seasons by the Lake Clifton boys and the Fallston girls. The St. Frances boys basketball team deserves a mention with a sweep of the MIAA and Baltimore Catholic League titles.

Those are just a few of the teams that quickly come to mind. Which other teams belong in this group? What are the important elements in the making of a great team? And which team leads the impressive pack this school year and why?
