Train them on drinking from the fountain of youth?

At those ages and skills, they're not worth the trouble of training. You could get perfectly fine 18 and 19 year olds with similar skills and good enough potential for such a small amount that there is no reason at all to waste even a week training these guys.

Thinking that I might have to do some IS next week, but I'm tempted to just make my 20 yr old into a defensive beast.

Well I've never had decent trainees before and these probably aren't either but here's what I've got at the moment.

Currently training ID

"Mr.Upset", 4th seeded team to upset everyone and move on. For the 20 y.o. one, train Both ID and OD to 13-14 (My opinion on your thought) 9+,and a pop or two in JS and then put Passing him. After you can consider capping him (If not already capped) on RB. For the second, I would make him a power forward or inside based small forward.. With a build like this:

JS:10
JS:8
OD:11-13
HA:10
DR:12
PA:10+
IS:13
ID:14+
RB:13+
SB:9

And then you might consider Stamina if they are your starters.

Thanks for the advice. Hopefully I can stick in D3 for awhile longer.

The season I promoted was ridiculous. I sneaked into the playoffs and had enough cash to buy some vets.

I would like to get PA up a lot more, just because I believe that is almost as important to a team as defense. I think Ill be adjusting my training based on my schedule though. Or I might just go back down to D4. Hopefully IV.18 again...

No Problem. And Hopefully you can take Andrews spot. He's looking tough.
