Region 1 - LaMoure-L-M, Richland, Hankinson, Wyndmere-Lidgerwood
Region 2 - Cavalier, North Star, Thompson, New Rockford-Sheyenne
Region 3 - Central McLean, Linton-HMB, Napoleon-G-S, Strasburg-Zeeland
Region 4 - TGU, St. John, North Prairie, Surrey
Region 5 - Richardson-T-H, Grant County-Flasher, New Salem-GU, Hettinger-Scranton
Region 6 - Divide County, Mohall-L-S, Parshall-White Shield, Kenmare-Bowbells-BC
Toughest Regions are regions 3 and 5. But since Central McLean is back in 9 Man we could make our return trip to the playoffs and the game against Linton-HMB at the end of the season could be for the region title and possibly the #1 ranking in the state could also be on the line. We both could both be unbeaten all depends on how our game against Napoleon goes. My prediction on the two teams to make it to the Dakota Bowl are Central McLean vs Richardton-T-H. Go Cougars.

Region 2 much better then Region 4? Injuries? I was just surprised by this result and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts.

Concerning injuries, I do believe St. John's starting QB from last year is out with an injury.

I saw Poitra was at QB for St. John in this game. Is Vivier back this year or was he a senior last year? That score surprised me as well as I had St. John pegged for the top spot in Region 4, which should be a pretty good region.
Big Blue wrote:I would not look past North Border. The last two years, they have had decent teams but just not enough depth to win games at the 11-man level. I believe they have eight or nine returning starters including all of their skill position players. I look for them to compete with North Star and New Rockford-Sheyenne for that third spot. At this point, Thompson and Cavalier are the favorites by far in my opinion.

I think your question will be answered tomorrow night when Kidder takes on Shiloh.

My expectations for LaMoure this year are pretty low. I don't see them as one of the top teams in the region and would be very surprised if they won a game in the playoffs. I haven't seen them play yet this year but in the games I watched last year other than their stud lineman, I wasn't impressed by any sophomores or juniors. Their Qb displayed confidence which is huge. However, Olson was great at going and getting the ball where ever it was thrown.
