4A girls basketball ranking adds three newcomers

There are three new teams in the Class 4A girls basketball rankings this week.

No. 7 Pueblo South, No. 8 Silver Creek and No. 10 Palisade were all unranked a week ago, but garnered enough votes to break into CHSAANow.com’s poll.

All five No. 1 teams stayed the same this week: ThunderRidge (5A), Canon City (4A), Sterling (3A), Peyton (2A) and Kit Carson (1A).

The rankings, voted upon by coaches and select media members, are the official polls of the Association. These will be the final polls of the regular season.

Complete rankings are below.
