Farragut Eyes Iowa State Action in Strong District Field
Farragut is No. 4 in Iowa and likely bound for state action as Farragut, Admiraiettos, 20-0, lead a tight district race with Lenox and Mt. Ayr potential meetings. Hubbard tops with 20-0, Paton Chardan second, Alison Belstow third at 49-1, plus Mediapolis Valley 20-0 and other front-runners like Everly, Mid Tralrig, Hartley, and Kingsley Pierson shaping the top 19 amid the season’s late changes and sectional pairings. The article notes shifts in SWS loop standings, Atlantic’s fall from No. 1 after Shea’s win, Treynor’s keyword, and local prep drama including the Glenwood club’s postgame antics and “NO HUNTING” ad sales.
