Couple things. Muskegon is 1-3 in d3 title games since 2012 ,and 0-2 in d2 title games since 2012. They were 3-0 in D2 title games from 2004-2008.'

Also Byron Center is ranked 8th in division 3 with Mason in this weeks poll. There is zero chance they end up in d3 with a increase in kids from last years 1071 to 1145 this year. If BC gets to six wins they will end up in division 2. Zeeland West at 1045 may end up in d2 also. I bet both would take that to miss having to play the Big Reds in the districts of d3.

Edwardsburg at 856 up from 838 last season will be in either d4 or d3. I bet they are rooting for d4 again lol..
