I could be wrong here but I thought I read or heard somewhere Martin county dropped out and Marshall County took their place?
Marshall’s star player is Mathew Langhi that holds multiple Division 1 offers.

True or not true, it would be a good swap.  Even if it's not the case, I would have selected Marshall County over some of the existing teams.

Makes sense. Martin County's best player, Braxton Keathley, a three-star with offers from Bowling Green and Ohio University, has enrolled at Prolific Prep in Florida so I'm guessing the Cardinals won't be nearly as strong as expected earlier.
