Conference 35
1. George Mason - heavy favorites; return everyone; probably will not lose a conference game
2. Strasburg - return most of their starters; shouldn't be very deep but will have experience
3. Madison County - also not very deep, but their "big 3" are solid
4. Central - getting a little better every year, but still don't have the horses to really compete; my dark horse pick
5. Clarke County - lost McDonald, who was entire team; will still play hard
Conference 36
1. R.E. Lee - definite favorite in 36
2. East Rockingham - young, but will come at you; good pieces
3. Page County - could easily flip this spot with East Rock
4. Stuarts Draft - the system will miss Simpson, but they should still be okay
5. Nelson County - honestly, don't know much about them...have heard decent things about them though
6. Wilson Memorial - new coach plus lost a lot of players = not good
7. Buffalo Gap - they just don't have the horses
Regional 1st Round Matchups
Mason vs. Draft - Mason would run away with this matchup...would not be pretty for SD
East Rock vs. Madison - pretty sure these teams play during the season; don't think Madison can handle pace
Lee vs. Central - Lee in a romp
Strasburg vs. Page - flip a coin on this one
