I'll update as I can!

[Mojocat]

South Oldham beat Henry by close to 30 (26?), and lost twice to North Oldham.  Now it's true that HC was pre-covid shutdown, when South seemed like a different team, and and the North games were after that shutdown.  Still.   Based solely on what I've seen in person, hard to see Henry County winning this one.
