High School Football Rankings Out – Lake Area Teams In The Mix

A lot to like about in the rankings today.

Starting in high school Class 5 football, the Camdenton Lakers.

After their resounding win over Jeff City Friday night, they have moved into the first poll of the year, sitting at #7 In Class 5

The Lakers ahead of fellow district in conference mate, Capital City.

Eureka and Grain Valley are ahead of Carthage, St. Pius the 10th.

Another conference and district mate, Jeff City, Halias, Webb City, Platte County, and the number one team in the state, Cardinal Ritter out of Saint Louis.

Tipton and Windsor do make the top 10….however, the Lebanon Yellow Jackets are outside of the top ten.

They are receiving votes, but they were beaten pretty soundly last week by Webb City.

They’re not the only ones, Warsaw & Lincoln were also outside the top 10 despite a win.

All other lake area schools are outside the top 10….at least for now.

Here’s a full rundown of all the rankings and where our Lake Area teams (in bold) stand via the Missouri Sports Network….
