Boys BB: State Ranks By Divisions
The CIF may have seedings, but we have rankings for each division that actually make more sense based on head-to-head results, not just blindly seeding teams based on what divisions they were in at the section level. There’s also one team ranked that isn’t even playing in the regional playoffs due to a problem that...
NEW State Top 25 Football
It’s easy cheesy to bring back in Orange Lutheran as a newcomer this week and the Lancers also go back in at No. 21. This week’s other new slot went to Foothill of Pleasanton basically because the Falcons are higher in local rankings than league rival Monte Vista. Nearly 30 more teams are ranked on...

NEW Bay Area 25 Football Rankings
We give CCS Open Division top seed Sacred Heart Prep a major bump but not above Milpitas, Serra, Valley Christian or Los Gatos in the CCS pecking order. It might even be more bizarre that Aptos isn’t seeded No. 1 in Division III but at least the Mariners are No. 2. Antioch also is on […]
