CHSAANow.com prep football rankings, Week 8: After Cherry Creek, Class 5A poll gets jumbled

Cherry Creek continues to stand tall atop the Class 5A poll, but the rest of the classification was jumbled up in this week’s CHSAANow.com prep football rankings.

Valor Christian moved up one spot into No. 2 after beating Highlands Ranch on Friday. Ralston Valley climbed up to No. 3 after edging out Columbine, 16-13. The Rebels fell two spots into No. 4 this week. No. 5 Regis Jesuit and undefeated No. 6 ThunderRidge each moved up one spot while Grandview took the biggest tumble, falling from No. 4 to No. 7.

The rest of the No. 1 teams — Palmer Ridge (4A), Roosevelt (3A), The Classical Academy (2A), Limon (1A), Haxtun (8-man) and Stratton (6-man) — remained in the top spots of their respective classifications.

Prairie, who comes in at No. 10 in 6-man, was the only new team in any of the top 10 polls, knocking out Deer Trail.

Here are the rest of the rankings, as voted on by coaches around the state:
