Broke down a few of the storylines I'll be keeping an eye on in the second half of the #delhs football season.

As a neutral observer, it's exciting to see several teams in the mix at all three levels.

I'd expect a lot of movement in the next version of the boys soccer player rankings.

Last year's All-State teams were filled with seniors, and we're already starting to hear about players who could emerge.
