1. Xavier, they always reload
2. Dubuque - Walhart - always reload
3. Norwalk - they play such a hard regular season schedule, by the time they get state it’s a cake walk for them until the final
4. Pella - only lost about 3 starts, they should be hungry, they have crashed out of sub state for the last few years.
5. Grinnell - should start the year ranked fairly high, however, their 2 best players will not be returning this year. However, being from Grinnell, they have a lot of good underclassman.
6. ADM - Bill always has the boys ready to play
7. Spirit Lake - We'll see how they do without their # one goal scorer
8. Glenwood - has been in the mix the last couple of year, and probably will be again.
9. Decorah - they have a great local program that's producing good players in every class.
10. Clear Creek - we'll give them the benefit of the doubt that last season wasn't luck
