SLUH really stepped up and made some noise in this one, swallowing up the competition and putting 6 in the top 9. We were right on the first 2 so 2/10 chronologically and got hit hard by those SLUH boys who showed out. Still 6/10 overall.

We called all 3 Ladue girls in the top 10 and hit on 2 of their places. Other than that, it was a mixed bag with quite a few sneaking into the top 10 that we did not call. 3/10 chronologically, 7/10 overall.

Nerinx won their 11th straight district title so that was an easy call, but Webster Groves stepped up without their #1 and made believers out of us. All four of these teams have a shot to make it to state as anything could happen in Sectional 2. All eight teams that made it out are very similar.
