ESPN RISE

Every year MDVarsity.com makes its season predictions. The top 25 has already been released, but to get the more than 200 schools narrowed down to what we think are the best 25, MDVarsity.com begins with each classification.

We attempt to predict who will be the top 5 teams in each region and follow with a list of the top 10 schools from each class.

Today we release the full list of each region's prediction and will follow with our predictions of the top 10s, followed by the preseason MDVarsity.com High School Football Media State Poll on Tuesday, Aug. 25.

Each week during the season, MDVarsity.com will release an updated version of the classification rankings.
