Things ‘getting messy’ as boys soccer polls get three new No. 1 teams

(Pam Wagner)

Fairview is back in the boys soccer rankings, checking in at No. 7 in 5A. (Pam Wagner)

Rangeview is Class 5A soccer’s lone remaining unbeaten and untied team. And the Raiders (9-0-0) are now No. 1 in this week’s CHSAANow.com boys soccer poll.

Rangeview moved up from No. 4 to claim the top spot. Grandview is second this week, moving up from fifth following a 3-0-0 week which included a 4-1 win over the-No. 1 Cherry Creek.

The 5A poll added three new teams this week: No. 7 Fairview, No. 9 Aurora Central and No. 10 Highlands Ranch.

No. 7 Poudre, No. 9 Pine Creek and No. 10 Montbello all cracked the ranking this week.

"This," said one 5A voter, "is getting messy."

There’s also a new No. 1 team in 4A, where Air Academy takes over. That ranking added Valor Christian (No. 7) and Denver North (No. 10).

Likewise, Colorado Academy takes over atop the 3A poll this week.

Complete polls for all classes are below.

Widespread changes as Valor Christian takes over atop 5A football poll

The weekend’s turmoil has bled over into CHSAANow.com’s football polls.

Though, when a total of 17 ranked teams lose in a week — including the No. 1s in classes 5A, 4A and 3A — it’s not hard to see change coming. So, yes, there are new teams atop 5A (Valor Christian), 4A (Montrose) and 3A (Rifle).

But the change didn’t only affect the top. In 5A, where three of the top four teams lost last week, that meant Chatfield, Fairview, Cherokee Trail and Regis Jesuit all made big jumps.

Valor Christian leads the 5A poll for the second time this season. The Eagles are 4-1, but unbeaten against Colorado competition this season, and received 21 of the 24 first-place votes.

Chatfield moved up to No. 2 from No. 5, Fairview went from No. 7 to No. 3 and Cherokee Trail moved into fourth from sixth. Regis Jesuit, which last week knocked off then-No. 1 ThunderRidge, went from No. 9 to No. 5.

ThunderRidge dropped to sixth, and is followed by Grandview and Cherry Creek.

The 5A poll added two new teams this week: No. 9 Pomona and No. 10 Arapahoe.

In 4A, Montrose takes over following its come-from-behind win over then-No. 1 Monarch. The Indians were a unanimous No. 1 pick, getting all 21 first-place votes.

Falcon is No. 2 this week, and Monarch dropped to No. 3. Loveland stayed at No. 4, Montbello moved up one place to round out the top-5.

Pueblo Centennial (No. 9) and Longmont (No. 10) are 4A’s newcomers this week.

Rifle takes over atop the 3A ranking following Silver Creek’s loss to Frederick. New to 3A this week are Mead (No. 7) and D’Evelyn (No. 10).

Brush continued to lead 2A’s poll, which added Bennett at No. 10.

Likewise, Buena Vista remained atop in 1A. That poll added Paonia (No. 8) and Jefferson (No. 9). Jefferson’s addition is especially noteworthy because the Saints were a combined 3-85 from 2004-12.

Complete rankings for all classes are below.
