My thoughts on the Beach this year, after 3/4 of the season I think its safe to say the Beach is a one horse race. Kellam is the only team that will compete with the SED. Every team after Kellam seems about even with the exception of Bayside, they are terrible. So whats the deal? what is the decline of the other Beach programs? Is the coaching that much better in the SED than in the Beach? is the talent just better in the SED? IMHO it seems all of the above, while their are some excellent players in the Beach it seems the SED has more great player, and while there are some truely outstanding coaches in the Beach, by in large SED caoches are better. I know a few Beach teams are missing key players, Cox is missing 2 key player, PA is missing a key player, but I still think those teams are only 1 or 2 wins better than they are now even with those key players. As for the players, the Beach has some studs, Sinnen boys, Bishop, Worthly, Faison, Brown, Tharp, Pizzela but I would say that the SED has more studs. Look at the beach teams, other than kellam, each Beach team has 1 or 2 studs but if you look at a SED team they all seem to have 4-5 or more per team. So whats the outlook for the Region, well I think it a safe bet that more than likely Great Bridge and Kellam will be the 2 to advance, I am not saying its a done deal but it is pretty clear who the 2 best teams are. As for POY's at this point, seems safe to give the nod to Connor Jones for the SED and Josh Worthly for the Beach with Jones the Tidewater POY but then again the obvious never seems to be true when it comes to those things 
again, these are just my humble opinions, what say you?
