Hey all, hope everyone is well. North will be interesting. West Jeff, Burg, and WLS all return a boat load. Northeastern is here to stay (I think), but have a lot of holes to fill. Fairbanks will be tough, losing Brogan Green but having Ryker Green back. Triad has maybe the best back in the league returning; I did just hear they got rid of their coach though???
South should be Greeneview's to lose. Cooper Payton seems like the leading candidate for breakout player of the year next year. Cedarville was perhaps the youngest team in the OHC last year. They're my sleeper pick. Southeastern was young and should be tough too. Greenon lost a lot for the second straight season and will need a good offseason. Catholic Central, who seemed destined to be back on track for the 2023 season, seems to have lost just about everyone with the exception of Kamara.
Top 4 rushers are all returning next year; Mitchell (Triad), Kamara (SCC), McGill (WLS), Roland (Burg). Buescher seems on track to set some records his brother set.
Next year is set up to be one of the most balanced and tough seasons in recent OHC history. A lot of young players across the board got their feet wet in a pretty successful 2022 campaign, and some of the top players in the league were sophomores and juniors (even a handful of freshmen).
Going to be a weird one for me next year, having a senior. 256 days until kickoff. See y'all in the fall!
