And now the four polls by class.

Gee, Kennedy ... lose one game to Johnston and the Dragons get ranked, but you get dropped (at least from the Gazette and AP)

I agree Spirit Lake and Central Lyon are the top 2A teams on the westside. I would disagree with your prediction. Central Lyon wins by at least 14.
