Really I don't think there is much change in the divisional alignment, only a few questions. Season opens on Saturday March 26th for '26 & '27 grad years and concludes the weekend of May 21st & 22nd. That makes for a 7 game schedule (assuming taking Easter w/e off as usual) unless there is a similar scheduling as last season where some teams played two games in a weekend. (Note that the numbers DO NOT indicate division standings, only serve as team count for that division).
Elite 1) Who will fill out the bottom two spots? My guess based on last spring and this fall results is that Team MD (White) will stay put and True Annapolis swaps with Sidewinders (as noted previously, Zingos doesn't like their players to be challenged so they won't move up). Best guess for teams:
E1 - Hawks E2 - Next Level E3 - ML Capital E4 - Crabs E5 - FCA MD E6 - Team 91 E7 - Team MD E8 - True Annapolis Green
AAA With Mesa MD folding, Looney's apparently not fielding a '27 team and assuming the TA Green moves to Elite, that leaves two openings to fill out an 8-team division. So one question is do any teams from AA move up? None of the AA teams had any notable wins last fall as all the games H2H with other HoCo teams were mostly from A and B divisions. If a team moves it is most likely only Madlax DMV, and there is no information on any new programs (other than MD Predators which will be discussed below). If so then AAA looks like:
3A1 - Sidewinders Black 3A2 - Zingos Black 3A3 - VLC 3A4 - True KP 3A5 - Kooper's 3A6 - BLC Blue 3A7 - Madlax DMV 3A8 - Open?
B1 - HLC B2 - Ground Control B3 - Top Caliber B4 - Sidewinders Volt B5 - MDX Red B6 - Rockfish Neon B7 - MDX North Blue B8 - Predators
So the entire Looneys 2027 squad goes to Predators and suddenly they go from AAA to B? That's weird.
Having seen them play VLC (I believe it was a 1 point game until an onslaught of VLC points at the end of the game), they are not horrible and should be lower AAA or top of AA. Based on that one game I saw, they would beat any team you listed in B, A, and probably AA. In your AAA list, they would not beat Zingoes, SW, VLC, BLC and 50/50 on Kelly Post. They would absolutely beat Madlax DMV, who should be in AA.
