Still no love for Squalicum. Bulington comes in at 12?

As Al Davis says “Just keep winning baby”. The rest will take care of itself. I think we’ll see some major movement by a number of teams in the 1A and 2A ranks over the next few weeks. The only thing the players can do is just keep winning and the rankings may or may not shake themselves out. BTW, some of the media outside of our area seem to have schizophrenic ballots, since they vote some of the most insane votes week to week. Don’t get to worried about the lack of “love”.

These polls mean nothing at this point. SQ will make some noise when they run the table and their only regular season loss will be to Lynden. Didn’t SQ beat Blaine last year?

Agreed. I think BE is ranked right especially if they can win til QB is back, but Squalicum belongs there. Have to wonder how many writers around the state think they are still AAA
