Top to bottom 13-5A Division I is among the best districts in the state, the defending state champion Smithson Valley lives here, yet the Rangers didn’t even win their district as Pieper took home the crown in the regular season. Smithson Valley’s defense with eight starters back is loaded and if the young offense matures, they’ll be a favorite. Pieper took some hits at the skill spots but should still be stout on defense and the offensive line. New Braunfels still has 6A numbers at the higher levels and if they can identify a QB, the Unicorns will be a force. Seguin, Champion, Victoria East and Wagner will all be factors in the playoff race.
