Dyersburg had a lot of seniors this year, but they always reload. Coach Stowe and company always do a great job. Covington is going to be loaded this year and lost vey little to graduation, their sophomore class is loaded as well. I don't see Covington taking a step back for a while. Covington also had Westview's number in McConnell's previous stint as well as 3 out of the 4 years of Ty Simpson's high school career. Ripley was pretty young as well and didn't lose much, they will have a larger senior class this year as well. I believe Westview will be good, but to say that these teams won't have a say so would be in injustice. I think it is safe to say that these 4 teams will represent the region in the playoffs most years. I will also say that it will be a sweep in the playoffs and there will be a rematch for some of these teams. Westview almost capitalized on the rematch with Dyersburg this year. It will be a fun region to watch.
