Top Teams Returning - Class A - I'm not going to lie...I'm not 100% sure with Class A
1. Century
2. Bismarck
3. West Fargo
4. Jamestown
5. Fargo Shanley

Top Teams Returning - Class B - Its too hard to choose who is the best returning team right now...Thompson, CC & OG return a lot of key players this year.
1. Central Cass
2. Thompson
3. Oak Grove
4. Carrington
5. Our Redeemer's
6. Linton-HMB
7. Bottineau

10. Ray
10. Bishop Ryan

I thought Napoleon would drop a bit. Don't they lose a lot seniors from last year's team?

I feel they have a good core coming back...but you are right they did lose a few seniors from last year's team.

They did lose a lot of seniors, still have a couple of good players but I watched them at a team camp this summer and they have a lot of holes to fill. Top of that Region will be Linton and South Border from District 6 and Ellendale and Lamoure from District 5.....I can see any of these teams coming out on top.

Does anyone know if Kindred found a volleyball coach yet?

Ellendale beats both Napoleon and Kidder County in straight sets to begin the year 2 and 0. Ellendale has a very good starting lineup with 4 very good and very experienced seniors (Madi Bommersbach, Dacy Fuller, Rachel Herman and Kalee Hack), a talented Junior in Kirsten Rall and super soph Isabell Wedell. Ellendale is without standout senior Shayna Mertz, who continues her recovery from a knee injury but still are talented enough to win the Region. New coach Mark Quennette will have the Cardinals ready to go every night. Going to be a fun year for them.

Northern Cass seems very good based on the scores I've seen.

Some big matches coming up in the next week or so......will really start to sort things out.

Hazen was the only "underdog" to win and they were really only slight underdogs.
