5A Rankings, September 30

Things have tightened up considerably in the 5A Boys rankings.

The panel of coaches was very nearly convinced, but not absolutely convinced, based on Friday's showing at Dave Sanders that Fort Collins is the new #1 5A boys team in Colorado. There's still a strong sentiment in favor of Mountain Vista, and Monarch boasts a strong following as well. This looks to stay interesting right down to the state meet.

Among the girls, Fairview has garnered a few more believers. Mountain Vista's big run at Dave Sanders earned them some accolades, but not yet enough to push them into 5A's big five. Meanwhile, Monarch retains the top ranking without running their varsity over the weekend.
