2016 Boys HS Club Rankings #8
2016 Boys HS Club Rankings #8
We didn't get to the HS Club rankings last week, so here they are this week, with a ton of changes. (And more changes as we fixed two mistakes in there.)
Several highly-ranked teams lost over the weekend, and that's put pretty much every rankings from #8 to #30 in flux. Something big could happen again this week, and going forward. Spring Break probably had something to do with it, as did the fact that it's really hard to go undefeated in some of the tougher leagues. A loss shouldn't completely undercut a team's rankings (West End, Tampa, San Diego) but it has to hurt at least in the short run.
We also expanded to 55 because we had teams we really wanted (or kind of had to) to bring in - Katy, West Chester, Cape Pirates, Hawaiian Gardens, Coastal Dragons, Fairfield all jump in, with Fairfield making the top 10.
For now.
