one problem i can see right away: it seems like some coaches keep track of their records differently...some factor it by matches won, i've run across some that go by games won, some just go by district wins and losses and of course there are some that just don't keep track.

i kind of expected that when volleyball moved to the fall the sport as a whole would take off a bit...i figured when it wasn't going up against boys' basketball the interest in it would grow. about the only volleyball matches i get to are in town, has anyone else seen that or has it stayed the same or dropped?

I have a seen a lot more interest in it especially class A...more ATHLETES are playing the fall sport rather than taking the winter off.

Region 1: Lisbon (they return pretty much everyone from the state tournament team)

Kindred, Central Cass, and Oakes (Kathy Warren always has competitive teams)

Region 2: I think is wide-open: Park River (they have Jenny Heggen), Thompson, MPCG, and Hillsboro

Region 3: who knows, that region is so weak... probably between Steele, Linton, and LaMoure

Region 4: North Star and Langdon

Region 5: Center-Stanton

Region 6: it'll be a battle between Kenmare, Bottineau, and Our Redeemer's---I think this will be the toughest region in the state.

Region 7: Beulah, Hazen, Dickinson Trinity

Region 8: Tioga, Divide County, Watford City, and Ray

I realize alot of these teams graduate a lot of talent, but it seems in Class B volleyball the same coaches are successful year after year.  I think there's alot of Class B coaches with very little volleyball knowledge, which is why you see most of the same teams at the top, year after year.

I would have to go with Hillsboro for region 2.  They won the state title last year and i think they could come out strong again out of the region.
