We're now getting into the biggest and most important part of the season with teams continuing their crucial area series that will determine who makes the playoffs in just a couple weeks. As will be the case each Monday during the season, it is time to release our in-season AHSAA 7A-1A Classification Top-10 Polls. Our staff has been out in full force covering numerous games throughout the state and will continue to do so as the season progresses. 

As numerous hours go into the process of devising these AHSAA classification polls, numerous factors are taken into account including team records and strength of schedule. While records are important, we put a lot of emphasis on who teams are playing on the field. 

NOTE: These records for each team reflect their results from multiple websites, including the official AHSAA website (DragonFly).
