North Dakota Preps

Just to get things started - even if I do not know some of the teams makeup
Region 2
1 Harvey
2 RollaRLRW
3 Larimore
4 Langdon
5 WesthopeNG (could be higher)
6 Hatton Northwood
7 Park River
8 MidwayMinto

Region 3
1 StanleyPL
2 Velva
2 Watford City
4 LCBerthold
5 DLB
6 Tioga Ray
7 Garrison Max
8 New Town

Region 4
1 Hazen
1 Killdeer
3 Belfield
4 Grant Co
4 New Salem
4 WashburnWW
4 Richardton TH
8 SRCHS
Show me where I'm wrong and why

I think region 4 will break down with Hazen and Kildeer neck and neck. Heart River is coming in at third. The middle of the pack is a toss up between NS, Southern Mclean, Grant County, and Richardton/Taylor/Hebron. Standing Rock brings up the rear. 4th playoff spot will be interesting.

I think i would put Stanley-PL up in a #1 spot. They returned alot and have a senior/junior dominant squad, really didnt lose much at all to graduation. It is going to be interesting to see who takes region 3 with Stanley-PL, Watford City, and Velva. Velva under sandy should always have at least a decent squad but did lose a lot of impact players from last season, as did Watford City. Like i said, these three teams should be interesting to see this season.

Does that look better?

My Thoughts:

Region 2
1 Harvey-Wells County
2 North Prairie
3 Langdon-Munich
4 Westhope-Newburg
5 Larimore
6 Park River-Fordville-Lankin
7 Hatton-Northwood
8 Midway-Minto

Region 3
1 Velva
2 Stanley-Powers Lake
3 Watford City
4 Des Lacs-Burlington
5 Berthold-Our Redeemer's
6 Williams County
7 Garrison-Max
8 New Town

Region 4
1 Killdeer
2 Hazen
3 Heart River
4 New Salem-Glen Ullin
5 Grant County-Flasher
6 Southern McLean
7 Richardton-Taylor-Hebron
8 Standing Rock

Just a hunch...

Why is everyone ranking Park River so low? I heard they return pretty much their whole team.

I would say that they do not have a track record of being a playoff team year in and year out.

none of these posts matter. its what they do on the field this year. harvey will be really tough this year and so will park river. park river only lost 4 players and they smoked everyone else in there region besides harvey and WNG.

Park river will be one of the top 3 teams in region 2. Who knows maybe harvey wont be as great as exspected but we wont know untill the region starts playing each other

Might want to check your resources again buddy. I don't think they "smoked everyone else in there region". For one thing they lost bad to Cavalier. Lost by 20 to north prairie and I'm pretty sure they lost to rugby. That's 3 teams that they didn't smoke. And second thing obviously they didn't smoke harvey because they were in a differnet region and WNG was nine man last year.

Its alright to come on here and talk up your team...but having your facts straight would probably be a good idea first. It'll be hard to take your posts seriously after seeing last year's scores and reading your post...no continuity with the facts.

They lost to north praire 16-6 the day it rained 8inches at north praire's field, the game was a mud bowl. Park river was only down to rugby 6-0 at half than 2 pr linebackers got hurt and kuntz was too fast for the young guys filling spots

After watching Velva play last night I can't see them finishing in front of stanley or watford city

Yeah but what does Watford City have back? I figured they wouldn't be too good this year. I think Stanley will finish 1 with Velva being 2. Give Bishop Ryan a little credit for making Velva look bad.

i lost a little faith after seeing the Watford-Heart River score. Watford goes down 39-6

I Guess I just assumed Watford would be good. I didn't know much about them this year. And yes Bishop Ryan looked pretty decent, but velva doesn't look near as good as they have been the last several years. With that being said velva will probably get better as the year goes on like they usually do

Watford City has 1 starter back on both sides of the ball....some kids played special teams but they are young and inexperienced...plus 3 starters were out for summer infractions....they will also sit at least 1 more game.

Region 2 it will be Harvey and Park River battling for first with Westhope and Larimore and North praire for 3rd and 4th. But one may sneak into the the top two. I dont really know much bout region 3 & 4 only 1 &2

Hazen over Killdeer 19-7

Does anyone know when Stanley and Berthold slug it out and where at?
