2015 Boys HS Club Rankings Week 1
2015 Boys HS Club Rankings Week 1
Goff Rugby Report brings you the opening Boys HS Club rankings of the 2014-2015 season. Yes some teams in Southern California have started plaiyng already, as have one or two other teams, but this ranking still serves as the de-facto pre-season rankings.
Three-time HS Club champs Cathedral remain on top, and the team that faced them in the last final, Santa Monica, is #2. Danville is a very strong #3, and they could well bounce up to #1 in a very competitive NorCal league.
Among the teams that moved up from the end of last year are United, who we think will be more consistent this year, and Peninsula Green, which is a team with all sorts of oung talent. Meanwhile, it remains to be seen which of the teams in Washington will move to the fore, so Seattle and Liberty are relatively low. Alpharetta Phoenix already has some impressive wins under their belt, and come in at #20.
This ranking will expand as more teams play, and will end with a Top 50 in May.
