3-Sergeant Bluff/Luton-------they bring a lot back

4-Spencer-----lost a lot of seniors, they will struggle early

5-Lemars---they need to get Borchers the ball

6-Denison-Schleswig----look to improve on the 1-8 last year

7- Storm Lake------The green cannot hide

D2

1-Carroll---have had a tough schedule the last two years, may enjoy the new group

2-Humboldt---Brady Ross is everywhere

3-Webster City---They graduated everyone

Not so sure that Harlan is going to roll Denison. Harlan is going to be probably the youngest team in the state and is going to go through growing pains. Their better years are going to out in the future. Denison played them relatively tough last year and has most of those kids that contributed back.

Harlan 28
Denison 17

Humboldt 31
Spencer 10

Heelan going to be higher scoring. I think Heelan will get a test on the defensive side of the ball and we'll see if they can run the ball with Tobin. If they can't run it's not going to be all roses for Heelan

Heelan 42
East 28

Carroll in a blow out
Carroll 42
Kuemper 7


Just cause I don't like Perry

ADM 17
Perry 10

It was brought to my attention that there is no more cross district play so I am going to concentrate on only district 2.
