I agree. You can't expect to go out and win region every year simply because of the "Shelby Valley" on the front of the chest.

If one looks at this Valley team with an objective eye, then the only conclusion to moe to is that SV is not a regional contender. There is talent, but it is very young. It is unreasonable to expect talented underclassmen to be able to consistently beat other teams with equally talented upperclassmen.

Valley is in a bit of a lull, but the upswing is coming soon. The core of the team is freshmen and sophomores, and when you add in several talented 7th and 8th graders coming up, expectations will be (and should be) high again in a couple of years.

Besides Rowe who have they got coming up?
