Top-seeded California (19-4) is ranked No. 3 in the state with No. 2 seed Southern Boone (20-3) ranked sixth in the state and No. 3 seed South Callaway (22-2) ranked No. 5.

South Callaway emerged from the pack last season and advanced to the state quarterfinals before losing to four-time state champion Strafford.
Get your popcorn ready folks. It’s going to be an exciting week.
