In 2022 the Seminole was stronger than ever. 7 legit playoff teams (out of 8 in the district). Arguably the top 4 teams in Region 3C that year were all from the Seminole. This year I feel like it is as bad as I've seen. Heritage, LCA, and JF all are very strong, but Rustburg has fallen below Liberty (after winning 7 games and being a playoff team last year; they did not bring back their coach. Rustburg beat Liberty 50-0 last year), Glass just got running clocked by LCA, Amherst lost another game by 4 touchdowns, and Brookville just lost 32-0 to Heritage.

I agree that it is pretty bad this year outside of LCA, JF, and Heritage and even those three teams are "down" compared to recent years. The first thought that comes to mind is coaching continuity or lack thereof. Rustburg, Glass, Amherst, Liberty, and Brookville all had coaching changes after 2022. LCA, Heritage and JF haven't.

Football in this area use to be top notch.
Not just the Seminole but consider the Dogwood. How many state titles came out of there the past 30 years.
Gretna won 5
Appomattox 5
William Campbell (when Bradley was there) some titles
Altavista won some.

The Seminole and the Dogwood were major players over the past several years.
