In D1 it's probably Iggy again. My alma mater Medina along with a few others will make things interesting of course but the Cats remain the favorites.
D2 has a wide variety of teams without any true clear cut favorites.
In the West it's Shawnee, Ontario and Lexington along with Revere who jumped out there. On paper it would appear that Revere is the top choice to get to the final four.
In the East Bay and CVCA are probably the top 2 but they will face each other in a regional semi. The other regional finalist could be any of Harvey, Poland, Canfield, Kenston or Howland. They are all pretty even for the most part with Harvey possibly having the edge.
In D3 Mooney is the favorite. A big, senior laden team that plays solid defense but has a tough time scoring at times. They should come out of the Niles districts. Crestview lost a lot from last year but still lurks with the best overall scorer in the area in Novak. The Akron districts will likely come down to the Kirtland and Beachwood matchup. Keep an eye on Hanoverten United who is out in the Elyria district in the NW. A very fast, solid team that has put up some very nice results.
