They said fargo south wont be too great this year it doesnt look like. Like i said in an earlier post they lost Billy Schoel and Catlin Solum due to injury's. If i remember right those two along with Nygaard were the only three to move up to play Post 2 in their state championship season starting at second base and center field. Those two are very substantial losses for south high school. Althougth i dont know if solum ran track in the spring or not. Players that should be returning for south are Jake Olson, and Justin Hanson from post 2. Other then that they said some people who might get some playing time from the J.V./ bomber level are Travis Beushane, Eric Manlove, i forget his first name but somthing Clapp a solid left handed pitcher, and Jake McDougall will all do there part they are thinking.
Fargo North they think will be the team to beat this season. With the return of Gabe Shockman, Tom Ebert and the up and comers for North you might see names like Bombinger, Begeron, Johnson, Sheets, Klien, and Ficek. To me that is going to be one of the more Talented teams out there (In the East that is) I really think Minot, Bismark, or Williston will take it this year, although the loss of Carr and Hennessey will hurt their respected teams.
West Fargo: I think this year more then any year they will be hurting. They lost once again to me the best hitter in the state in Storrestun and Alot of their starters from last year including Holmes, and Heitcamp. They do have a few players with some potential it seems in Gregory, Schmidt ( looks like a hitter) , and Salquest. Some other players they thougth might fill in on some duties are Renfrew looks like a decent player, Greshik heard lots of upside on him. Players from the B-legion team that ive heard some about are Odegard, Crist, Horsehauger, and Roll. With Few returning starters i wouldn't expect much out of these guys.
im not going to Deny that the west should probabally win this year but those are some of the summeries in the F-M area of teams. Besides shanley, i dont know anything on them.

Fargo North should be pretty good in the east. Bismarck too, but no Kyle Carr will hurt them in tournaments because they don't have a true ace.
I would guess some of the usual suspects in Class B i.e. Thompson, Grafton, Bishop Ryan, who all made the state tourney last year.
