The top four teams here return all of their state point scorers from the state tournament. Plainview sits in 5th and will presumably get back Will Gunning for next season, which would boost them up big time – probably into the second spot. If you factor in Elkhorn Valley’s non-scoring entries that puts them in sixth place (would be 13th without). If they can spread themselves out they could be on the verge of another top five finish.
