AURORA - The Colorado High School Activities Association has announced its preseason coaches' polls for the 2024-25 boys basketball season.
CHSAA will be doing ONLY a preseason coaches poll for boys basketball. Throughout the season, CHSAA will publicize the Seedings Index as a weekly ranking for the sports that have a Seedings Index (boys and girls basketball and ice hockey). These rankings will go live once there are enough games played to populate a ranking (approximately week 3 or 4).
The boys basketball season culminates with state tournament play from March 13 through 15.
