Here are the way I see districts as of now… I take in to account what has happened so far and what still lies ahead.
Class 3
- Cassville- If I try to be neutral. Wildcats have to be here until proven different.
- Reeds Spring- Wolves already have the win in hand over Mt Vernon.
- Mt Vernon- Still has to play Catholic but draw allows them to miss Cassville
- Seneca- they still have probable wins over McDonald County and East Newton coming… I have them ahead of Hollister because of the bonus pts coming for playing the Mustangs.
- Hollister- wins over Rog and Aurora I think can happen. Hollister does not have a bonus pt game still coming… that could make the difference. It will be close. Every point here on out is important.
- Aurora- Houns will do no worse than this spot but could move up
- Nevada- Their win over East Newton will be enough to keep them out of 8
- Clinton- If Clinton wins they would jump Nevada, but dont see it happening.
Class 5
- Carthage- this one is a given
- Parkview- still has probable wins vs Hillcrest and Waynesville
- Branson- Republic this last week made it interesting… But my numbers still say, Pirates beat Nixa, they finish here.
- Nixa- Already have the win over Republic.. if they beat the Pirates they switch places and earn a bye
- Republic- last weeks win was big.. but a very tough three weeks are to come… Not sure they win again, in regular season.
Class 2
- Ava- Despite the toe stub at Buffalo to start the season. As long as the Bears beat Thayer they will finish ahead of an unbeaten Fair Grove team
- Fair Grove- will be one game short because of a late drop but not the only reason they will finish second even though they will be undefeated.
- Strafford- Indians came up short last week. But will get a rematch in dist. semis
- Houston- they play Liberty week 9. I think they play two weeks in a row.. the question is who gets to host that second game.
- Liberty- see above
- Mountian Grove- I see them locked into this spot.
- Willow Springs- keep an eye on Forsyth behind you
- Forsyth- this all depends on Panthers vs Stockton. Neither team has scored in almost a month. Panthers win, they will make it close with Willow.
