Pine Creek baseball is the new No. 1 team in Class 5A — one of three new teams atop the polls this week. (Josh Watt/CHSAANow.com)

Three out of the five No. 1 positions in the CHSAANow.com baseball rankings have a different look from a week ago.

Pine Creek takes over as the top team in Class 5A, Silver Creek returns to the top spot in 4A and Granada comes in as the new No. 1 team in 1A.

The Eagles take over as No. 1 in 5A after beating Palmer 10-0 last week, avenging a loss to the Terrors that occurred only days earlier. It is the only loss of the season for Pine Creek.

Lakewood (No. 7) and Cherokee Trail (No. 8) are the new additions to the 5A rankings this week.

Silver Creek takes back the top spot in 4A only a week after losing a grasp on the position. The Raptors went 2-0 last week, topping Northridge and Longmont to improve their record to 9-2 overall.

The bottom half of the rankings saw an influx of new teams as Northridge comes in at No. 7, Pueblo South lands at No. 8 and Palmer Ridge rounds out the rankings at No. 10.

Chatfield sits atop the 5A baseball rankings this week. (Dan Mohrmann/CHSAANow.com)

Chatfield was the big benefactor of two Regis Jesuit losses last week.

The Chargers come into this week as the new No. 1 team in the Class 5A CHSAANow.com baseball poll. Monday they topped Arapahoe, and had a huge Thursday showdown with the then No. 1 Raiders.

Regis Jesuit was coming off a loss to Fairview and was looking to bounce back, but a seven-run sixth inning for the Chargers was good enough to get the win. As a result, despite losing to Bear Creek on Saturday, Chatfield sits atop the 5A rankings.

ThunderRidge made the most impressive jump of the week to land at No. 2. They were the No. 9 team in last week’s poll.

Fort Collins has played well enough that it broke into the rankings this week at No. 9 respectively.

The 4A rankings also saw a new No. 1 team emerge as D’Evelyn reclaims the top spot that Silver Creek had taken a week ago.

There were two new teams in the 4A poll as Mountain View comes in at No. 5 and Pueblo Centennial rounds out the rankings at No. 10.

The Academy was the only new team to break into the 3A rankings, landing at No. 10.

Paonia swept all four games they played last week to hold on to their No. 1 ranking in 2A.

Three new No. 1 teams were crowned this week in the CHSAANow.com baseball rankings.

Silver Creek now stands atop the Class 4A poll, Paonia takes over as the top 2A team and Holly comes at No. 1 in the 1A rankings.

With new teams breaking into every poll this week, the rankings have a much different look to them than they did when the last new set was released two weeks ago.

Silver Creek made the most impressive jump out of any other team, regardless of classification. Two weeks ago, the Raptors held the No. 7 position in 4A and after rattling off three wins in Arizona, the voters saw enough to boost their position.

Canon City, Pueblo East and Valor Christian also had solid outings since spring break and played their way in the rankings. Canon City lands at No. 3, Pueblo East comes in at No. 4 and Valor Christian takes over the No. 7 spot that Silver Creek held in the previous rankings.

Regis Jesuit remains the top team in 5A.

Ralston Valley gained ground in this week’s poll, jumping from No. 9 to No. 6.

Douglas County, ThunderRidge and Heritage join the 5A rankings at No. 8, No. 9 and No. 10 respectively.

Eaton may still be the top team in 3A, but it’s No. 2 Bayfield who suddenly getting attention from voters. The Wolverines completed a successful road trip to Colorado Springs where they held on to beat St. Mary’s before holding off Lamar and Manitou Springs in a double-header.

Kent Denver was the lone addition to the 3A poll at No. 9.

Paonia’s 8-0 start to the season was good enough for the Eagles to jump three spots and take over the No. 1 spot in 2A. They swept former No. 1 Resurrection Christian in a double-header on Saturday.

The Cougars fell to No. 5 as a result.

Rocky Ford (No. 6) and Limon (No. 10) joined the 2A rankings this week.

Holly made the two-spot jump after a 2-1 start to their season to become the new No. 1 team in 1A.

Regis Jesuit is the preseason No. 1 team in 5A baseball. (Jack Eberhard/JacksActionShots.com)

The preseason CHSAANow.com baseball rankings show something very different from most other preseason rankings that are released through the year. They don’t have an abundance of defending state champions sitting at the top of the polls.

In Class 5A, the Regis Jesuit Raiders come into the season as the overwhelming No. 1 team in the state. They received eight of 12 first-place votes to earn that ranking.

Though the regular season is slated to start this week, the Raiders won’t play until Mar. 16.

Defending champion Rock Canyon comes in at No. 3 to start the season.

D’Evelyn comes in as the top team in 4A to start the season. The Jaguars fell just short of reaching the state championship series as they fell to eventual state champion Green Mountain in the semifinals.

The Rams lost a significant number of seniors from last year’s team and as a result, will start the season ranked No. 4.

In 3A, Eaton is one of two defending state champions to start the year with a No. 1 ranking. The Red received seven of nine first-place votes.

Eaton topped Brush in the 3A state championship and the Beetdiggers also came in high in the preseason polls at No. 3.

Resurrection Christian went from 2A state runner-up in the spring to preseason No. 1. The Cougars fell to Rye in an offensive battle in last year’s 2A state title game. The Thunderbolts came away with a 12-10 win and will start the season with a No. 6 ranking.

Dove Creek is the other defending champ to earn a No. 1 preseason ranking. The Bulldogs won the 1A title with an 8-5 win over Granada.

The 1A class may prove to be to the most wide-open as Dove Creek took only half of the first-place votes, the fewest of any preseason No. 1 this year.

The regular season for baseball is scheduled to begin Mar. 10.

The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association. During the regular season, they are released each Monday.
