(This is assuming no changes after appeals).
1. Capital, Farmington, Roswell, Alamogordo and Deming all move up. Those are all good teams that are going to find the sledding much tougher.
2. 4A (the old 5A) is going to look very different. It loses those teams and adds Highland, Valley, Hope Christian, Shiprock, Wingate, SF Indian, Pojoaque, Taos, Ruidoso, Silver, Moriarty, and Portales. Of these, Highland, Valley and Hope seem like the top contenders for a title. All in all, 4A probably got worse overall despite adding teams.
