Maple Mountain doesn't have the fire power they have had in the past but they will still be towards the top. They lost state qualifier Jaren Myrup as he moved and Zack Johnson is hurt. Zack has a great chance to find the line up sometime during the season just a question of when. This is a young team with only 2-3 seniors in the starting line up. 

The line up below could change drastically. You have Curtis, Vantassell, Hellstrom & Kay all in that 152-182 range. The big question is can any of them make 152 and can any get big enough for 182. In the line up below we spread them out but who knows if it'll actually happen. If they can spread out through 182 then that puts Lilly at 195 and once again you have another log jam with Lilly, Peterson, Bastian and Kay unless Kay goes 285 (which we have listed below) which would help spread things out.
