1. Powell Valley- an experienced Viking team returns and they can only beat themselves they will dominate in the district having maybe 1 to 2 tough conference games. having beat Gate City 4 times in a row Helps too.. 9-1 (7-0)

2. JI Burton- In my opinion JImbo Adams have established himself as an elite coach in not only the LPD but in the state, the raiders had one of the better seasons in school History and they will have another one to complement it. they will get over the fear of gate city and pick up the W on senior night.. 9-1 (6-1)

3. Gate City- The Devils arent as dominate as when they first entered maybe a factor of 1 to 2 things 1. People have figured out how to play them better and 2 their talent level has went down... but still they are a good team and will win a majority of the games.. 7-3 (5-2)

4. Clintwood- The wave had its ups and downs last season with a victory over Powell Valley but a loss to Pound it left wave fans asking questions. but Clintwood had some talented Freshman and they will be playing for a Division 2 playoff spot... 6-4 (4-3)

5. Pound- The Wildcats had one of the better seasons in a while posting a 6-4 record with a victory over Clintwood to cap the season, last years Pound team missed the playoffs due to the "Rye Cove Rule" This years squad has some playmakers back but the question mark will be the offensive and defensive line, but they will win just enough to make a division 1 playoff appearance.. 6-4 (3-4)

6. JJ Kelly- The Indians have had their share of bad fortune but they will be looking to change that this year, they were much improved last season expect more progression but not enough for break into the top half, they won't win every game but they will be in them... 3-7 (2-5)

7. Appalachia- A tough year for the Bulldogs, they lost their beloved coach.. The Dogs have a new guy at the helm and he won't get the same response as Tom it will be tough for the Dogs to stay focused.. 4-6 (1-6)

8. Coeburn- The Blue Knights will have another struggling year for their last year in the LPD, I think things will pick up for them after they move out. Best thing for the Knights to do is play hard and don't give up you never know what will happen.. 3-7 (0-7
