1 NORTHWEST (0-0), 4A West
47 points | 8/8 votes | 7 first place votes
Defending 4A State Champs bring back a lot of talent and experience. Jaguars have the potential to win back to back titles. -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
Can't argue with "4A State Champ -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
2 DAMASCUS (0-0), 3A
35 points | 8/8 votes | 1 first place vote
Loaded from top to bottom. Jalen Christian and Jake Funk should carry the load. Hornets will compete for a 3A state title in a loaded classification. -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
Looking for Jalen Christian to lead with Hornets to the Promise land -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
3T CLARKSBURG (0-0), 4A West
29 points | 8/8 votes
Coyotes might have the best rushing attack in the county behind Nacci, Fenslau and Holland. Week 1 matchup vs Quince Orchard will set the tone for the season. -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
I really feel like this could be Clarksburg's year to make a run -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
3T QUINCE ORCHARD (0-0), 4A West
29 points | 8/8 votes
Cougars lost a lot of talent from last years squad. 1st year head coach John Kelley has tough shoes to fill with the departure of Dave Mencarini, now at Urbana High School. The Cougars face a tough challenge in week one as they travel to Clarksburg. -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
Hard to bet against the Cougars -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
5 PAINT BRANCH (0-0), 4A East
15 points | 6/8 votes
The offense won't be as talented as last year with the losses of Gaston Cooper and Javonn Curry. Expect big numbers from WR Ryan Stango this year. Question for the Panthers will be, can their defense stop anyone? -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
6 SENECA VALLEY (0-0), 3A
6 points | 4/8 votes
Had some young talent play last year; should be more matured and experienced -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
received votes:
WHITMAN (0-0) 4A South // 3 points | 3/8 votes
GAITHERSBURG (0-0) 4A West // 2 points | 2/8 votes
Coming off a solid 2013 season, the Trojans look to open up their new stadium with another big year. They have talent, can they put it all together? -Matthew Miller, millerlite8389
Toss up spot that has a lot of potential slots: WW, PB, Sherwood. We'll have to see how Week 1 goes. -Karsten Bratt-Pfotenhauer, karz19
SHERWOOD (0-0) 4A East // 2 points | 1/8 vote
