For 2018, I predict Albia and Eddyville battling it out for the SC Conference title, with Centerville ( Strong pitching/catching duo ) closely in the mix. Clarke has great coaching and multiple junk ball pitchers, while D.C, is always stronger at the end of season, and has the potential for young experienced upcoming travel ball players coming up. Knoxville and Chariton could be surprising. 2018 will be a year of exciting softball for the SCC!
