District Football Standings have been updated… A little movement following last weeks games. Reeds Spring has moved into fourth, which would put them in a position to host, but that is a little misleading.
Here is a look at where things stand.
Class 3
- Mt Vernon 6-0 46
- Cassville 5-1 43.67
- Monett 4-2 42
- Reeds Spring 4-2 36.33
- Seneca 4-2 35.67
- Hollister 2-4 28
- Aurora 1-5 19
- Nevada 0-6 15
If the standings would end like this… The top three would stay the way they are… But Seneca would jump ahead of the Wolves and get to host Reeds Spring because of their victory in Week 2.
Monett’s schedule is extremely light the rest of the way. The Cubs should have no trouble running the table. The Wolves best chance to move up would actually be Cassville. Reeds Spring still has a Week 8 date with the Wildcats, should they beat them they will likely be able to move into the three spot. Cassville still has to play Lamar as well. One important thing to remember. If Cassville finishes right ahead of Reeds Spring but right behind Monett…. Reeds Spring would not move up, even if they beat the Wildcats, because the Wildcats would jump Monett, leaving the Cubs as a buffer between the two…. Lots of football to be played but the most likely matchups for area teams AS OF NOW… would send Reeds Spring to Seneca and Hollister to Monett… Lets see how it plays out over the next three weeks
Class 5
- Carthage 4-2 39.33
- Ozark 4-2 29
- Nixa 3-3 27.83
- Republic 2-4 26.5
- Branson 1-5 24
Ok, the top two spots are pretty well set in this one. Carthage and Ozark will be one and two… Ozark has already beaten the other three teams. Branson owns a win over Republic and Republic over Nixa. Pirates likely need to beat Nixa to make sure they stay out of the five spot. However, a win over Nixa would set them up for a possible third seed and a first round bye.
Class 2
- Ava 6-0 48.33
- Willow Springs 3-3 31.33
- Strafford 3-3 31
- Mt View Liberty 2-4 30.33
- East Newton 1-5 30
- Houston 2-4 28
- Forsyth 2-4 26.54
- Mountain Grove 0-6 14
Ava has a huge game with Thayer coming up.. but win or lose, they win this district. Strafford fell to third but they beat Willow, head to head. Liberty as also beaten the Cubs. Looking at the schedules I would say there is a good chance Liberty climbs up to the 2 spot, followed by Strafford. But keep an eye on East Newton. I do not think the Patriots are going to win another game… But all three games remaining are with Class 3 schools, so they will get bonus points in each. Forsyth is likely going to finish right where they are.
