I think it has to start with Central Lyon at the top. The talent they bring back should give them the early nod. OABCIG will be up there as well with their quarterback. Southeast Valley lost quite a bit from last years team and title run. Not sure what they have. Also not sure what teams like Waylon, Williamsburg and West Lyon have coming back. They all have great tradition so I’m sure they’ll be able to reset and have successful seasons.Who would be your top 10 2A teams for 2022?
Based on QB play, Monticello would be #1 in 2A. Their QB (Preston Ries) threw for 2594 yards and added another 1343 rushing as a sophomore. Accounted for 34 TD.But, based on the quarterback play, I like Central Lyon and OABCIG at the top. Any other teams from the eastern side or teams under the radar?
Fair point. Had a heck of a season last year and also got it done defensively with 8.5 sacks. They will be a tough out coming from the eastern side. Central Lyon quarterback didn’t have as many yards passing with just over a thousand, but did have 31 TDs to go along with 1200 yards rushing and 22 TDs for 53 total as a junior. Southeast Valley won it last year with great play from their QB position among other areas. Looks like that will be the case this season with Monti and CL. Should be fun to see how these teams progress through the season and what numbers their QBs can put up.Based on QB play, Monticello would be #1 in 2A.

Iowa commit.
CLGLRs QB is also a Iowa commit.Based on QB play, Monticello would be #1 in 2A. Their QB (Preston Ries) threw for 2594 yards and added another 1343 rushing as a sophomore. Accounted for 34 TD.
Iowa commit.
The Iowa commit wasn't a selling point. Ries' stats were enough to take care if it.CLGLRs QB is also a Iowa commit.
Right now I think CLGLR and Williamsburg are at the top.
Should be a great 2A season with solid QB play. We’ll see which teams make the dome.The Iowa commit wasn't a selling point. Ries' stats were enough to take care if it.
they had a full scrimmage against Sioux Falls ogorman a few weeks back
Agree, the coaching staff up at Waukon does an excellent job and always puts together a great product. I heard they had most of their O/D linemen back, who is the transfer and where did he come from?Waukon will be a solid top 10 at least team again this year. They return pretty much their entire OL and DL along with their QB and have a very solid RB and OL transfer this season. Time will tell as they open with 4A powerhouse Waverly-Shell Rock and 3A Decorah this year. I think they will be very comparable to last years team and as always they have excellent coaching. I'm ready for football to start again!
A Palmer who originally went to Waukon, then transferred to Decorah about 5 years ago, and now open enrolled in Waukon last spring again. He is 195lbs., strong as an ox, and was the top 100M and 200M sprinter in track last year for Waukon. He will surprise a lot of people I think, especially with the talent they have on the OL. They have another senior RB who was injured all year last year who is very talented as well along with a sophomore and junior RB who are going to be the future RB's next year. They really only had 3 starters graduate last year, but 2 were LB/RB all state players as well. This year's senior class for Waukon is loaded and most are 2 or 3 year starters so I expect them to surprise a lot of people. Most of these kids were on the sidelines behind studs as sophomores when when they beat Lutmer and Central Lyon 2 years ago in the 2A finals.Agree, the coaching staff up at Waukon does an excellent job and always puts together a great product.

BHRV did not have a good game. Starting to think my Knights might finally beat them this year. CLGLR should easily win our district though. Wouldn’t be surprised if they won it all this year.CLGLR makes a statement with 52-7 win over BHRV. The Nighthawks lost a lot of talent and production from last years runner up team, but they’re still a solid team that I think will have a very nice season. The Lions defense was stifling all night and the QB is as good as advertised. It’s only week 1 but does the title go through a team from NW Iowa?
Williamsburg also looked great with a 31-0 win over Regina. Maybe they will have something to say. Monticello drops the opening game, 21-13 to 1A Cascade. What happened in that one?
Gonna get a good shot from Peyton Hart for that title.Central Lyon qb with 204 passing yards and 158 rushing yards with 4 total TDs. Making the case as best in 2A.
West Marshall? Impressive start to the season for them. Central Lyon will play West Sioux next Friday. That should be a heck of a game.Gonna get a good shot from Peyton Hart for that title.
