Belfry is going to be very, very stout the next 4 years and over the past decade would have went toe to toe with Boyle and IMO won the majority of the matchups....

Central will be back as well and the same could be said for them over the past 6 or 7 years.

With Coach Smith back though there is no doubt the Boyle County program will once again ascend to elite status... but to assume they are about to breeze through 3A..especially the first couple years...may be a dangerous assumption.

Remember when Bell County moved to 3A from 4A everyone expected them to become the dominant team (especially after they went toe to toe with Boyle for a few years), but since joining 3A the Bobcats haven't made it out of the Regionals. Ft. Campbell was also expected to become a dominant team after winning several 2A Titles and since moving up I wouldn't even consider them a consistent Top 10 program in 3A.
