8. 4A Preseason Top 25 Poll Released

The eighth most read news story for 2014 took place on March 17th when we posted 4A Preseason Top 25 Poll Released.

As we do prior to each season, we rank who we think the best 25 teams in class 4A are heading into the season. Like with most preseason polls, some times you're right and sometimes you're wrong on teams. In 2014 Terre Haute North was the biggest surprise for us, advancing all the way to the 4A State Championship Game before losing to eventual champion Noblesville 8-4.

Here's a look at who we ranked in the 4A Preseason Top 25 Poll last March and the result of how they ended the 2014 campaign.
