Irmo in a weak region? They have Spring Valley, Ridge View, and Dutch Fork in their region. They ended last year ranked in 1st, 4th, 10th and 13th in the state. They are now ranked...even though it is preseason...1st, 7th, 9th and 12th. If that is a weak region, what would you consider a strong region? God help the team that has to play the 4th seed out of that region in the playoffs. It won't be an easy win. Here are my picks for state champions:

4A: Irmo
3A: Riverside
2A: Emerald
1A: CC
