Who will be the teams to beat?

William Fleming still strong?

Graham still state bound?

Any idea what Salem looks like?

WB and LB still formidable?

LCA three peat?

Glenvar?
 
Graham lost a lot to graduation, but has most of the line on both sides of the ball returning and some very talented sophomores coming up and an even better class of freshmen coming up (could be one of the best freshmen classes that Graham has ever had). I look for Graham to be right in the mix for a title again this year and for the next few years in the foreseeable future. This is the year to knock them off, because of the youth, but come playoff time, they will be right in the hunt. The next 3 years after that, if everybody sticks with it, they should have some of the best teams to come through Graham High School.

Glenvar returns a lot and may be the odds on favorite early on, but I expect Graham to be right there with them at the end of the season.
 
I don't know about the other teams, but Salem will depend on what they have on the OL/DL and on defense. QB- (Jr) Tanner Overstreet will be a new starter, but I like what I have seen from him on JV. Solid passer and a good scrambler as well. WR- (Sr) Coen Logan will be his deep target. Solid RB play from (Jr's) Kyshead Arrington & Jordan McCadden. Secondary should be solid with Logan, McCadden, & Jones returning.

I think if they can find replacements on the lines to mesh with returners Lynch, Millard, James, then they will be at least as good as last year. Looking forward to 7v7 and workouts to see the newbies.
 
Salem ran a counter play straight out of a Delaware wing t playbook (without the wing) last year a lot, is that tradition for them?

Sincerely asking, play would probably be written up something like “pro right-a strong-25 counter”. Probably have some history of doing that in the 90’s but they never really ran that concept in the mag era.

Anyways. Mules are gonna mule. No doubt.

Also, my love of JV sports has now evolved to baseball. Salem’s JV baseball team had back to back dingers tonight against magna Vista. Kiwanis Field is beautiful.
