1)Batesburg-Leesville
2)Walhalla
3)Emerald

Emerald lost the only two threats on their starting eleven...Joseph Taylor and Walter Nunez. Apart from these two players the Emerald side did not field any dangerous talent. Walhalla always reloads with talent, however, last year they didn't have help from any young players and they have lost alot of players of veteran experience. On the other hand, B-L competes with the top 2A teams year after year. They have the edge this year because they return every core field player from their starting lineup. They only lost an outside defender and their goalkeeper but they are adding a very talented striker to their side that was ineligible last year as a freshman.
