2016 Boys HS Club Rankings #3

Up in the air and up to #15, the Bayou Hurricanes.

Unlike in the Single-School rankings, there have been massive changes in the HS Club rankings this week.

Solo beat Danville, and after being unranked, the Falcons jump to #3. Now, that's a big jump, but give us a little slack in this case. Solo is a new club, formed out of Dixon HS (mostly) and some other teams, and as  such the Falcons were a new, unknown entity. Dixon was a ranked single-school program, but now we had to wait to see how they did as a club. First test, against Danville, went very well for them. Also shifting - Orlando lost to Jupiter, and so slips, but not too far as the Griffins rebounded with a nice win the next week.

We are still waiting for Tampa to play tougher competition (not their fault, it's just how the schedule has fallen). That will happen on Feb. 27 when the Krewe faces Orlando. 

Also jumping in relatively high from unranked status, the Bayou Hurricanes in Louisiana, the Blackbirds out of Arizona, and SFGG out of Northern California. All are there for good results.
