Yeah, no joke. Group D looks strong. Lexington and Northwestern are arguably the two favorites in the upperstate and from what I hear Pinewood Prep should be really good this year. But I don't know that Group B looks any less difficult. Norman North is always the favorite. Daniel should compete with Riverside and Greenville to be one of the strongest 3A teams. Wando looks to be on the the top teams in the Lowerstate and even with a dissapointing season last year, Dutch Fork should be competetive probably starting 9 or 10 seniors along with Danny Cates. Group C is solid with SV and Dorman (don't know what Farragut graduated) but it's pretty obvious Group A is the weakest judging by past Palmetto Cups showings by out of state teams and amount of talent and numbers lost at BC (not really sure about FM).
