As much as I would love to see Carmel get it this year after missing it by 1 point to Fossil Ridge in 2016, I’m sure WWPN has just as a strong a chance of getting it. Idk much about Division B at all, lol.

there’s also the possibility that 7L or Mason doesn’t make top 10 in which one of them would definitely win it if that happened but it’s incredibly unlikely

B: Jeffrey Trail, SAA, or Slauson (Kennedy will probably be top 10)

C: Grand Haven, LM, WWPN, maybe Carmel (Mason and 7L will definitely be top 10)

I'd say Goff is unlikely because it's a first year team that hasn't gone since a long time ago, and Pembroke is unlikely because no MO team has ever gotten sub 20 in their first year (i think???)

The DuPont Trophy is given to the best new team outside of the top ten. Mason will definitely be at least top five.
