With Spring Football coming to a close pretty soon and summer workouts and 7-on-7 activities starting, we will be keeping our eye on a bunch of a teams. We will present five teams from Classes 1A to 4A each and ten teams from Classes 5A to 8A each for teams that we will be watching going into the summer and fall. With reclassification, there are some new looks including districts and the teams that shape them. As such new challenges face all the teams around the state and that means things are likely to be different than 2012. The teams we present will be followed up during the summer with more in depth looks at the teams and their respective districts.
LAFAYETTE HORNETS | District 1A-5
The Lafayette Hornets last year did the unthinkable by pushing defending Class 1A champion Jefferson County in to the district runner-up status and did so with a fairly young roster.
