The State Coaches Poll is out this week, making my job a little easier. Although my rankings would be quite different, that is the beauty of the coaches poll as you get a combination of various opinions throughout the state. At this point, sample size is important, as teams who have played more games and proven themselves are garnering the most respect.
After defeating Lassen in the Mendocino Tournament Championship game, Skyline has slid to the #1 spot as one of the only few undefeated teams in the State. Columbia is a surprise at #5. Merritt holds a solid #3 after winning the Shasta Tournament. Fresno isn't getting much love after winning the El Camino Tournament, and is probably still hurting from their consolation performance in their own tournament. Marin is still riding off their solid performance in the CCSF Tournament. The Coast-North Conference has the #1 team, including 5 of the top 11 teams, Yikes! Looks like Chabot needs to play more games to earn their stripes. Delta earns a spot in the coaches poll. Santa Rosa isn't earning much respect at the moment falling to #14. Here is a link for all the details
Top 5
1) Skyline (7-0)
2) Lassen (9-1)
3) Merritt (5-1)
4) San Jose City (4-1)
5) Columbia (4-1)
