3A was won last year, in dominating fashion, by a team full of juniors. Alamosa brings the franchise back this year and probably figures as everyone's favorite to take #3 in a row. But, we'll play it honest here and give each team their fair chance to show what they have before drawing conclusions.
3A receives a large influx of last year's 4A teams this year, but it doesn't figure to impact the boys as much as the girls. Most of last year's top 3A boys teams will also be this year's top 3A boys teams.
