I didn't get to see these teams during the regular season, so this is just based on what I saw at the VA, but I was very impressed with the level of play in the D4 District this year. Only one team truly struggled, but even they showed glimpses of being pretty decent.
It was a joy to watch these teams compete and I think that our District will get over the Newark Catholic bump sooner rather than later in the Regional if the kids and coaches can keep raising their level of play.
There is no better year than this year for it happen. Newark Catholic is really down by N.C. standards. I think they're 10-17 (granted, their league competition is stiff.) They barely survived their district semi-final versus Cardington-Lincoln.
NC made it to the regional with a 2-0 win over a better seed, East Knox. They go to the Springfield Regional this year, so wouldn't meet the SE district team until the state championship if they both happen to make it that far.
