Denver-Tripoli (8) 3. Davenport Assumption (7) 4. Independence (6) 5. Forest City (5) 6. East Marshall ...

MFL MarMac has been successful the last decade, winning five straight Upper Iowa Conference titles and six of the last seven. Central has had problems with low numbers, but produced strong individuals. The move was considered in the past ...
