Maryland's Team this year, defending 2006 champs. One player over 6'2. I think average men's high school team is much bigger. Given a pool of say 600 boy students, I would think there should be two or three that are 6'6'' or taller.

My high school team was pretty average, we had 6'6" and 6'7" centers pretty much every year. Plus stronger, we always has a few football players, not that skilled, but some 6'3" power forward/linebacker that benches 300lbs. We also had a few dunkers, or at least 3-4 guys who could punch it. I would say nobody on the MD team can dunk.

The women will be better coached, play smarter, and likely shoot better. If we split the difference on the size of the ball, I'd take the men.
