They need you. Halfway through the conference season, four teams are tied atop
the standings at 3-1. They are North Montgomery, Lebanon, Southmont, and
Western Boone. The state pollsters are giving the Chargers and Stars more love
than anybody else. North Montgomery is eighth in this week’s 3A poll after
knocking Western Boone from the ranks of the undefeated. The Stars still
received votes and claimed the 17th spot this week.
All of that
means exactly nothing when it comes to the league race. The picture is this. Every team has one of
the other contenders left on it schedule. The exception is Western Boone which
still has to play both Southmont and Lebanon. Now, just in case you think you
can swim your way through the schedules and pick a favorite, try this on for
size. North Montgomery blasted Western Boone the week after Lebanon handed the
Chargers their first loss. Southmont, who had fallen hard to North Montgomery
earlier, dumped Lebanon last week. Enjoy watching your own head explode wading
through all of this.
