Other teams in the west that should be tough Willliams county, good speed not big up front or overpowering. Central McClean some tough kids back, lack of a real fast kid and lack of a QB with experience. Napolean with no McCleary's is the start of a drought, but the will still be tough becuase of the carrythough of the programs.

Smeldon was out at the end of the season and Zach Grothmann took his spot and did very well, so that spot is filled. Olsen's spot will probably be filled by a soph. lineman, Garret Burg, moving out to TE/DE. Burg's spot will probably be filled by Brandon Abel who played spot duty this year when Burg was injured, so those spots are filled. Tanner Boeddeker will fill Von Ruden's spot very well. Otto was a spot starter and his combination of spots will be filled by Josh Mayo, who started at safety the last half of the season.
If any of these guys need help there is good depth in next year's sophomore class - some good football players coming. Hillsboro's future looks bright.

E/k lost alot of seniors but will still have a pretty big line, and they do have Zach Fiest who is an excellent player, i can see them going deep into the playoffs.
Who does divide, and hillsboro have im sure they will still be good.

Hillsboro should be tough but lack of a proven passing game makes them suspect when you get into the playoffs. Mott and as always Divide County will reload with underclassmen and Divide has to be a big title favorite.
Northern Cass and Hankinson will surprise many people and Napoleon will have to bust their butts to go very far in the playoffs. North Border will have a great D line and their passing game will be tough to stop.
Staying healthy in 9 man is a premium as depth is usually lacking.
My big question: who has the best off-season program for strength and fitness? Getting bigger/quicker in the next 6 months may push borderline teams into the front of the line.
Any reports on off-season programs?
