Could four mountain teams play for a state title, yeah I can see that. Single A in the east I believe runs through Paintsville and Pikeville. I've read a lot of people say this year's Raceland team is lacking athletes they had before and Hazard nearly got beat by a team Pikeville laid the smack down on. The only team in the east I see throwing a curve ball into this could be Fairview.

2A... Maybe if you have a ton of injuries and Somerset get really lucky... And you count Somerset as a mountain team.

3A will be Belfry or Corbin from the east. I believe it will be Belfry, this being the first year their former hold back students start go play major roles. All the other competition in 3A has to beat each other up to play in the State Title and Belfry's ball control style could give anyone who is beat up troubles.

4A I really believe runs through Johnson Central. Someone made the argument before about South Warren not getting it done in 3A when Johnson Central beat the 3A champ the last couple years.
