After a clean sweep of Cheyenne Mountain in the Pikes Peak Athletic Conference title game, Lewis-Palmer remains the No. 1 team in 4A.

In 3A, Eaton still sits atop the rankings while University hung on to its spot at No. 2.
St. Mary’s (No. 8) and Delta (No. 10) are the two new teams to break into the 3A poll.

Like all other classes this week, 1A saw the No. 1 spot go unchanged as Fleming held its ground.

It’s not going to be easy to knock Eaton off its perch as the top team in the Class 3A CHSAANow.com volleyball rankings, but University is certainly making moves with those hopes.

Rock Canyon remains the No. 1 team in the 5A poll, but Arapahoe is certainly gaining attention as the Warriors jump to No. 3 this week. They were sitting at No. 6 a week ago, but going 2-0 – including a win over Cherry Creek – certainly helped in their leap.
Fairview is the lone addition to the 5A rankings, landing at No. 10.

Chatfield volleyball is No. 1 in 5A. (Dennis Pleuss/Jeffco Athletics)
A trio of new teams are taking over No. 1 spots in the CHSAANow.com volleyball rankings this week.
With plenty of changeover in the Class 2A poll, Paonia comes in as the new top team. The Eagles have not dropped a set yet and cruised to a 2-0 start.
Dayspring Christian jumped three spots to No. 5, but it was the bottom of the poll that showed the most change.
Highland (No. 7), John Mall (No. 8), Simla (No. 9) and Telluride (No. 10) are all new to the 2A rankings, showing that a title run in that class could be wide open come November.
The same theory could hold true for 5A. Chatfield comes in as the new No. 1 team, jumping two spots in the process.
Despite a five-set loss to Cheyenne Mountain, Caparral jumps from No. 2 to No. 6.
Three new teams broke into the 5A rankings with Highlands Ranch landing at No. 5, Mountain Vista coming in at No. 8 and Lakewood breaking in at No. 9.
Cheyenne Mountain and Lewis-Palmer hang on to the No. 1 and No. 2 spots in the 4A poll.
Holy Family notched the biggest jump of the week, leaping three spots to land at No. 5.
At No. 10, Eagle Valley is the only new team to the 4A poll.
