To date, I would say Valley's pass defense would have to improve some more. But you are plain silly if you believe none of these other teams are a determining factor in Div. 1. It may be Valley in the west, then again it may not. It may be someone not even on this list, but I doubt it. BTW, the information below is not opinion, it is facts!
