Observations:

Obviously the big news this week was Batesville's huge upset of Wynne.  Maybe the Valley View game was a bit of a "canary in the coal mine" for this result, but it's a signal to Nettleton that Wynne's not untouchable.  A potential East crown has hoved into view for the Raiders.  LR McClellan continues its path up the poll after more than doubling up Beebe.  Harrison suffers a pretty remarkable reverse to a Greenbrier team that surprisingly moves to 3-1 in conference play; the upset considerably muddied the West picture, with a 4-way tie now holding in that conference.  LR Parkview failed a big test against Christian.
