East Surry will easily be the class of the conference. Unless you guys have been hiding under a rock recently, then we should know..that East Surry just sent the Qb and WR from last year to UNC..another receiver to NC State..they have a lineman currently committed to Tennessee..and Junior WR that has verbally committed to Ohio State...No team in Wilkes is competing with them...just wait...lol

Think East Surry and central will be the class of the conference in football. I just have never been very impressed with north Surry. Albeit they have a competing team every 4 or so years. Think they will be middle of the road with the forbushs in this conference.

New MVAC's gonna have a lot of parity minus West/North Wilkes unless they turn it around. I think the other 5 will all have good runs in it. Granted I find Wilkes Central hard to figure right now but at least there will be some mystery involved.

New league is good. Should be some good battles between East Surry and central in football.

3rd draft came out today with no real changes to the MVAC.
Northwest wise NCHSAA took Millennium Charter out and put them in a private school league with more Piedmont teams. They were only gonna play Basketball and soccer/cross country anyways. Looks like the Northwest will have 7 teams including East Wilkes, Alleghany, Elkin, and Starmount.

WC's gonna have to improve their numbers to hang in Football. They could get away with 18-20 kids vs the 1A schools but playing the Surry schools/Forbush who have at least 25-30 players every year on Varsity it's not an ideal situation. Central did that in the mid 90's in the old Foothills 3A league and had a real hard time. They do have some fast kids but if turnout can't improve it won't really matter. Turner will have to prove himself or else his time may be up. WC's lost their momentum super fast the past 2 seasons. If the men's soccer team cancelling the year shows anything then it'll be an uphill battle.
Same for Ashe in the 3A league.. they will have to get more kids out to even think to compete in that league or else they'll be like West Caldwell.

Central will be fine in football, basketball, and baseball. West will be ok in baseball. Other than that West and North struggle now in the MVAC. Especially in football.

That's most of the 2A schools from the late 80's. Will make it hard on Wilkes schools to win in the Big 3 sports for boys and girls

I do hate it for Ashe; the state could do them better by putting them and Watauga with the Iredell 3A schools but they won't do it for some odd reason. They'd compete better in that conference. I hear they are gonna go easy on the non conference side to get wins minus a game or two; smart.
I'm glad they did this though it's better for the area as a whole.. the MVAC made it 11 years with no changes it was time to do something different. The Northwest will be so much better with East Wilkes, Elkin, and Starmount in it. MVAC as a 2A will be fun as well.. a lot of parity every year in it.

The 2nd Realignment draft came out today; completely different than the first one.
Looks like the MVAC will be in for a remodel as it looks like the split conference will bite the dust if this stays. The three 2A Wilkes schools will stay but will be welcoming East Surry, North Surry, Surry Central, and Forbush. The 1A schools meanwhile will be put back in the Northwest with Mount Airy and the 2 1A Stokes schools. Northwest will finally have some good gates as MA and Starmount/East Wilkes will be some good games the next few years. MVAC wise North/West Wilkes will stay with Wilkes Central so that will be a + for them.
Ashe meanwhile is still a 3A in conference with the Caldwell schools and Watauga. Looks like they will be a 3A for at least 2 years.
Thoughts? I love it.. it' s best for the area. We need to get the Forsyth schools and their low dollar gates away from the Northwest and the area.
