[Truth]

Is the overall talent level down at Ashland? I can remember when they was loaded almost every season.

They are playing without any "transfers" in their starting lineup for the first time in a number of years. The usual sources of their "transfers" have empty cupboards. Therefore Ashland must, for the most part, go with homegrown players and the crop is weak.

Since Ashland hasn't won the region in over 12 years, your memory of loaded teams shows that you have a good long term memory. But, most will agree that the 1961 team was loaded.
