Rye has moved up to the No. 1 spot in this week’s Class 2A baseball rankings.
The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association.
With 1A baseball seeding its bracket on Tuesday, that classification does not have a ranking this week. These will serve as the final rankings of the season in all other classes.
When defending Class 3A champion University needed someone to come up big, Andre Chacon had no problem answering the call.
Chacon drove in the game-winning run as the No. 1 Bulldogs beat No. 2 Eaton 5-4 in a Patriot League thriller on Saturday.
The Reds had taken a 3-0 lead after the first inning but University pulled ahead after scoring a pair of runs in both the third and fifth innings.
Eaton tied the game in the top of the seventh and turned to Dalton Logan to hold the Bulldogs off in the bottom of the inning. He replaced Jared Ure, who went strong innings.
Logan held University to nothing in the seventh, but Chacon ultimately provided the game-winning hit in the bottom of the eighth.
Seven new teams hopped into this week’s baseball rankings: Pine Creek (5A), Wheat Ridge (4A), Golden (4A), Colorado Academy (3A), Holyoke (2A) and Prairie (1A).
The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association.
During the regular season, new polls are released each Monday.
Northridge 23, Mountain View 15, Pueblo South 12, Centaurus 11, Denver North 11, Palmer Ridge 5, Standley Lake 4, Canon City 2, Golden 1, Wheat Ridge 1.
Dropped out:
Golden (10).
