Air Academy new No. 1 in girls lacrosse ranking
Air Academy, now 4-0 to start the season, has taken over the top spot in this week’s CHSAANow.com girls lacrosse rankings.
The Kadets went 3-0 last week, including an 18-12 win over then-No. 5 Arapahoe, and moved up one place from No. 2. They got four of the six first-place votes.
The other two first-place votes went to Centaurus, which moved up from No. 3 to No. 2 after a week which included a win over former No. 1 Cherry Creek.
Chatfield, which also beat Creek last week, is No. 3. Arapahoe is fourth, and Cherry Creek rounds out the top five.
Kent Denver is the lone newcomer to the ranking, joining at No. 7.
The next new ranking will be out on April 7, due to the large number of out-of-state games this week, and thus, a lack of in-state competition.
