ER- May have finally found a coach that can bring them to respectability, but I expect them to really struggle alot this year.

SV- Saunders has brought this program to respectability. Lost alot from last season but should still contend for the 2 seed in the district.

PC- Probably the best of the three but I don't see them beating Belfry and Sheldon Clark, so yet another 3 seed and first round playoff exit.

Good assessment of each team. I agree with your predictions.

SV should battle with Bath County for the #2 seed in their district. Valley lost a lot from last year, so Bath should be the favorite. However, the regular-season game is at Robinson Creek this fall, so it should make for an interesting matchup.

As for Central, they have improved but not enough to overtake SC. Like you said, they should grab the #3 seed in their district.

ER and Magoffin will battle for the final 3A playoff spot.
