With the spring high-school sports seasons underway, there is a very good chance many local public-school teams in the Sun Gazette coverage areas will dominate and win postseason district and region-tournament competitions.
With so many good teams in so many different team sports, local teams could win upward of 70 to 80 percent of all such girls and boys tournaments in the many spring sports of baseball, softball, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, and track and field.
Many of those teams won such championships last spring on the district and region levels, with possibly more poised to do the same in 2022. It’s also possible there could even be two teams from Sun Gazette areas playing in many district and region-tourney championships.
Keep in mind, there are only two districts – the Liberty and Concorde – that make up the 6D North Region. Of the 13 teams making up those two districts, eight are within the Sun Gazette’s coverage areas.
We’ll see what happens.
