I think Class 1 is fairly accurate. I watched Winona compete at the state tournament last year and they are hands down the best team in the state. They have one player who hits the ball harder than any adult man I've ever seen and she was only a sophomore last season. Other sports forums online show that she is already being looked at by several Division II schools. Rachel Holthaus is her name.
Bernie is most definitely going to be tough to beat this year. I've heard Bismarck is sharp this season as well. It'll be interesting to watch these two teams duke it out this weekend at the SEMO tournament. Bernie seemed to handle Bismarck with ease when they played last year.
I was surprised that Lesterville is not on the list. They are returning their two best players from last season: Drew Myers and Immerah Bethume. Also surprising to see that Leopold is not on the list. They are always one of the most consistently dominating teams in the sport.
I can't wait to see how all these teams look this weekend at the tournament!
