Excluding the yearly powerhouse teams, Who are you guys looking at as potential surprise teams that will be better than people think?
First one that jumps off the page to me is Reagan. Not sure if it counts since they’re always kinda in the mix as a top 10-15 team, but they could take a big leap forward this year.
Lake Norman is someone I think could be strong. Gotta have one of the largest OLs in NC led by the LSU commit , a D1 caliber sophomore RB… they will be a tough out.
Not sure it counts as a surprise, because expectations are always high for them, but Hickory Ridge. 6-5 last year with a strong core returning, especially the offensive side of the ball.
