Divisions

I'm also going to cover some of the top Div. III teams since every team in Div. III and Div. IV will be fighting to represent the North in the Division III state championship game.

I will also focus on the top teams in Div. V since they will have a shot at representing the North in the Div. IV state title game (schools with enrollments of 500 or less).

I do think Cardinal Newman and Marin Catholic will petition to play up because they will get more consideration if they win the NCS Div. III championship as opposed to the Div. IV championship.

As for the schools in Div. V such as Ferndale, Valley Christian and Berean Christian, they would certainly get a good look were they to win a Div. IV championship.  But a team like Ferndale comes with such a reputation that they would always warrant a strong look were they to win the Div. V championship -- even if they had a loss or two (given the size of the schools they play).

In fact, there is a big game looming Saturday, Sept. 22 with Eureka that everyone is looking forward to.

So, I'm going to expand the coverage here to include teams that are in the hunt in Div. III and Div. V.  As always, I will cover all the Div. IV teams.

If I miss a match-up you think I should highlight, post it as a comment when I post the weekend's games and I'll add it.

I did notice that the NCS had dropped Drake and did not have them in any division, so I went with Cal Preps to determine they are Div. IV.

If I am missing any games, please let me know.

Opening Weekend

It's been a very busy summer for me, which is why I haven't been on that much the past several months.  But this weekend is the opening weekend for some teams in Div. IV.  I have yet to hear if teams such as Ferndale have petitioned up, so if anyone out there knows, please post it here.

I'll post a preview of this weekend's games Thursday.
