Salpointe Catholic once again comes in at the #1 spot in the 4A Power Rankings. This team hasn’t lost a single game in tournaments or the regular season. Looking at their schedule going forward, I think they will have a pretty easy road except the 2 games against Catalina Foothills. Those games should be really good!
Key Wins: Ironwood Ridge, Buena, Sunnslope, Perry, Brophy Prep
#2 Catalina Foothills 7-0
As of right now, I will place Catalina Foothills at #2. I am a little wary of their placement because I feel like they haven’t had the toughest schedule thus far. However, they will soon be challenged soon so we could see some shifts in the rankings here in the near future.
Key Wins: Nogales, Mountain View Marana
#3 St. Mary’s 5-1
I really battled myself on decided where to put St. Mary’s. I questioned if they should be #2 or #3 and eventually decided on #3. I do think they play a harder schedule than Catalina Foothills, so we will see how their next few games play out and then readjust from there. So far, their only loss came to the currently ranked #1 team in 6A, Desert Vista.
Key Wins: Coconino
#4 Arcadia 5-0
Arcadia comes in at #5 and they are one of the remaining undefeated teams in the conference this far in the season. They have beaten some impressive teams but I just want to see a little bit more before I move them up. Arcadia is definitely trending upwards!
Key Wins: McClintock, Buckeye Union, Hamilton, Paradise Valley
#5 Peoria 7-0
Peoria rounds out the list at the #5 spot. The reason you see them here, despite their undefeated record, is mainly due to their schedule. I don’t think they’ve really played anyone super tough yet but that will change as their schedule intensifies here very soon. We will have to wait and see how this team does before moving them up.
Key Wins: Rancho Solano, Thunderbird, Moon Valley
