Class 1A                                                                     Last Week

10.  Monte Vista (5-3) NR
·         Others: Highland, Clear Creek, Hotchkiss, Platte Canyon, Buena Vista

Dropped Out: Platte Canyon (7)

Notes: Platte Canyon falls out of the rankings.  They were upset by Clear Creek and it was their first game against a team with a winning record.  Crowley County jumps up to #7 and Burlington moves up to #9.  Peyton stays put at #8 needing OT to beat Buena Vista.  The #10 spot was hard this week.  Clear Creek is 7-1 but have played a weak schedule, Highland is 5-3 and have played a much tougher schedule and Monte Vista is 5-3 and played a similar schedule to Highland.  Monte Vista picked up the biggest win out of Highland and them so Monte Vista moves to #10 just ahead of Highland and Clear Creek.
