The usual caveat applies here. I am not going to discuss The Classical Academy girls in this piece. There are times where you need to keep your relationship with the young men and women you coach as a coach-athlete relationship, and this is one of those times. If any among you feels strongly enough that I've done an injustice to the "top five" preseason 4A girls teams by not writing up TCA, you are welcome to write a TCA piece and submit it for inclusion at the end of the five teams I've written about below.
That said, there is no shortage of candidate teams for the 4A preseason top five. One question on everyone's mind in 4A concerns whether Niwot can keep the momentum alive for another in a string of state titles. It would be impossible to leave Niwot off this list. But, what other teams make the list? Click on Next and see!
