Now that we're into the heart of the season, preseason rankings are a thing of the past an no longer factored in.
\n
\nFor the girls<\/strong>, we saw big moves from Poway <\/strong>(from NR to 8) and Dana Hills<\/strong> (from NR to 19) after their outstanding performance at the Dana Hills Invitational. As a result of the Stanford Invitational, we saw moves from Campolindo <\/strong>(from 25 to 9) and Arcadia <\/strong>(from NR to 11), who both had great runs. Finally we should note that Canyon of Canyon Country<\/strong> is making their first appearance in the statewide rankings after upsetting Saugus <\/strong>in a tight league battle. Note that Saugus, who was missing their #2 girl and is expected back shortly, slipped to 15 (for now) but remains ahead of Canyon.
\n
\nOn the boys <\/strong>side, several big moves are due to corrections from Week #3, as some performances at Woodbridge weren't reflected - namely Palos Verdes<\/strong> (From 7 to 2), Jurupa Hills<\/strong> (from 17 to 7), Clovis North<\/strong> (from NR to 14), and El Toro<\/strong> (from NR to 20). Redondo <\/strong>jumped from 22 to 12 after matching up nicely with PV in Bay League #1. Finally, the Stanford Invitational changed the pecking order as Bellarmine Prep<\/strong> got 3rd (from 24 to 16) and La Costa Canyon<\/strong> got 2nd (from NR to 15), both upsetting De La Salle<\/strong>.
\n
\nI have to say it bothers me every week when I see great teams get pushed off the list, not due to a bad performance, but because others simply stepped up. This week will be a bit different as several smaller invitationals around the state take place, before the big Clovis Invitational takes place the following week.
\n
\nI appreciate the feedback we received from multiple people so far this season as we continue to refine our rankings process. Keep it coming!
