These are my predictions for the upcoming season as of the players that are expected to play:
West fargo, central, north fargo, south fargo, davies, wahpeton, valley city, shanley
1. West Fargo
2. Red River
3. Central
4. North Fargo
5. Davies
6. Shanley
7. South Fargo
8. Wahpeton
9. Valley City
I believe that West Fargo has got the talent to take first we just have to see if they don't get too big in the head.
Red River has a strong senior class and last year took 1st in the EDC tournament.
Central has a lot of young kids coming back from last year. Look for the kid they call "jesus"
North Fargo lost their Gatorade Player of the Year, however, they still have Carter Thompson in the line up along with Nathan Hegstad as a pitcher.
Davies will be interesting to watch. After last year and dealing with suspensions and stuff like that, it's hard to say how it will pan out. The Hartness brothers are back and I think one is suspended for a bit. They still have Collin Birch for the mound though.
Shanley is gonna have a rough year but I think they can make it to EDC. They really only have some decent pitching other than Swanson. Offensively and defensively it will be a learning year for these young kids.
Wahpeton is a town that I really don't know a lot about. Other than their catcher I wasn't impressed with a whole lot from last season but they could come out from no where.
Valley City hasn't had a good season in a long time. I can't predict they'll do much better this year unless the Feeney rumor is true.
