  • Douglas County joins 5A football poll following big upset

    (Kay Livingstone)
    Douglas County is ranked sixth in this week’s 5A poll. (Kay Livingstone)

    Douglas County took down then-No. 3 Cherry Creek on Monday night. Tuesday afternoon, the Huskies find themselves ranked.

    Douglas County jumped into this week’s CHSAANow.com football poll in 5A at No. 6. It is the first time this season the Huskies have been ranked.

    Cherry Creek, meanwhile, dropped all the way out in something of a surprise.

    Cherokee Trail returned to the 5A ranking following a week on the outside looking in. The Cougars are eighth.

    ThunderRidge held on to 5A’s top spot — but only narrowly. The Grizzles edged No. 2 Valor Christian by two overall points, despite beating then-No. 4 Grandview last week.

    Columbine bumped up to third from fifth, and Ralston Valley went from sixth to fourth. Regis Jesuit rounds out the top five.

    Chatfield is No. 7, Fairview is No. 9, and Grandview dropped from No. 4 to No. 10 following its loss to ThunderRidge.

    Monarch continued to lead the 4A poll, which added Montbello for the first time this season, at ninth. Along with Denver South (No. 2 in 4A) and Denver West (No. 9 in 2A), it means Denver Public Schools has three ranked schools.

  • Lakewood joins 5A volleyball ranking at No. 6

    (Kevin Keyser/KeyserImages.com)
    Grandview is ranked third in this week’s 5A poll. (Kevin Keyser/KeyserImages.com)

    Here comes Lakewood. The Tigers, who knocked off then-No. 1 Doherty as part of a 6-0 week last week, joined the CHSAANow.com volleyball poll.

    Lakewood is now 6-3, ranked sixth, and even received one first-place vote this week.

    Doherty dropped to second this week, and was replaced by Arapahoe atop the ranking.

    Lewis-Palmer continued to lead the 4A ranking, which added Montrose (No. 8).

    The 3A poll got a facelift, of sorts. Manitou Springs jumped from No. 4 to No. 1, and that ranking added Olathe (No. 8), Frontier Academy (No. 9) and Fort Lupton (No. 10).

    Likewise, there is a new No. 1 team in the 2A ranking: Fowler. C.S. School (No. 6), Sangre de Cristo (No. 8) and Lyons (No. 9) all joined that ranking.

    The 1A poll features two new teams in No. 9 La Veta and No. 10 Rocky Mountain Lutheran.

    Complete rankings for all classes are below.

  • ThunderRidge moves up to No. 1 in 5A football ranking

    (Ray Chen/MaxPreps.com)
    (Ray Chen/MaxPreps.com)

    The expectations were already high. Now, perhaps, things have been kicked up a notch.

    ThunderRidge, coming off a 36-18 win over then-No. 3 Ralston Valley, took over atop the CHSAANow.com football poll in 5A this week. The Grizzlies had been No. 2, but jumped Valor Christian, which lost in overtime to Bingham (Utah).

    Valor has yet to play an in-state opponent this season, and the four-time defending champion still received half of the first-place votes. Still, the Eagles are No. 2 this week.

    Cherry Creek had its own big win last week — over then-No. 6 Pomona — and moved up on place to No. 3.

    Grandview (No. 4) also moved up one place, and faces ThunderRidge this week.

    Columbine went from No. 7 to No. 5 to round out the top five.

    Ralston Valley settled in sixth following its loss, Regis Jesuit is seventh and Fairview is eighth.

    The 5A top-ten is rounded out by two newcomers: Chatfield (No. 9) and Grand Junction (No. 10).

    In 4A, Monarch continued its hold on the No. 1 spot. Denver South moved up to second, and the ranking added Standley Lake at No. 9.

    Class 1A also got a new No. 1 team this week with Buena Vista taking over at the top.

  • ThunderRidge, Ralston Valley both move up in football poll ahead of Saturday’s game

    We’ve got a No. 2 vs. No. 3 showdown on our hands this Saturday in Class 5A football.

    ThunderRidge, following an impressive showing, bumped up one spot from its preseason No. 3 ranking in this week’s CHSAANow.com football poll. And Ralston Valley, the Grizzlies’ opponent this weekend, went from seventh to third after two big wins.

    Valor Christian remained in the top spot, and garnered 22 of the 23 first-place votes. Cherry Creek stayed put at fourth, while Grandview (No. 5) and Pomona (No. 6) swapped spots.

    Columbine is seventh in the 5A ranking, and Cherokee Trail dropped from second to eighth following its loss to Chatfield.

    Regis Jesuit moved up one spot to ninth, and Fairview is the lone new team to the 5A poll, at tenth. The Knights edged Chatfield with 42 total points to the Chargers’ 38. Grandview and Arapahoe are also just on the fringe.

    The 4A ranking continued to be led by Monarch, and added Montrose (No. 5), Loveland (No. 8) and Dakota Ridge (No. 10).

    Wheat Ridge jumped up one spot to second in 4A following its win over Windsor.

    Silver Creek stayed on top of 3A, which added Palisade (No. 8), Lutheran (No. 9) and D’Evelyn (No. 10).

    Platte Valley is the only new No. 1 team among all classifications, having taken over the top spot in 2A following a win over previous No. 1 Kent Denver.

    Complete rankings for all classes are below.
