South Medford was far and away the class of the Southwest Conference last season, winning it outright for the second-straight season.

The Panthers will again be the favorites after returning the Co-Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year in Jackson Weiland. They lost star guard Boden Howell to transfer, but hope Ty Dahlin, a Crater transfer, can recreate some of his production.

Roseburg, Sheldon and Grants Pass all finished the conference slate at 6-6 behind the Panthers last season.
