The regular season is one quarter of the way through, and of the 44 teams in The Independent's coverage area, only 14 remain undefeated. Twelve remain in search of their first win. I guess that's what you call parity.
Of the undefeated teams, only three are paired up against other perfect teams this week. In Class C-2, Ravenna is at Heartland. In Class D-1, High Plains is at Humphrey.
The battle of area undefeateds in C-2 is an interesting one. Both Ravenna and Heartland could have been excused for slow starts. Both had talent back from playoff teams last year but had some key positions to fill with new faces. Ravenna responded by beating Amherst and Centura by a combined 90-6, while Heartland scored 24 points in wins over Doniphan-Trumbull and Osceola. This should be a good battle that tells more about how good each team really is, and I'm looking forward to it.
