Good point. Also, how about Hebron. Both are in the DMN area top 10 and deservedly so.

I think that these rankings are rediculous from 8-10. Lets see, Berkner is 9-7. allen, 10-7. So does that mean they are good? oh flower mound 7-6. If they loose one more maybe they will go down to 10 oh and they will be 500. No offense old coach, but you didnt do your research on this one.

Keller deserves to drop out unless they beat Colleyville on Friday.

I agee with Plano Fan...8-9-10 that's crazy.

Take Martin out and it looks more like a North Dallas rankings.

Kellerdad and Planofan, if you are going to diss the last 3 spots, then please provide 3 teams you would sub in...only fair?

11sdad, your Lou Holtz schtick is getting old.

Don't be using those 50 cents words on me, you know I live south of 30 and west of 360 and don't understand them.

Hebron loses a close 6-4 game to No. 5 Coppell on the road for its only district loss, is 12-4-1 thus far AND has already beaten "No. 8" Flower Mound head-to-head. . .and the Hawks can't crack this stellar Top 10 list???

Swing and a miss here, boys, swing and a miss.

You will have the playoffs to sort this one out, boys...

I am not saying 8,9,& 10 aren't good teams but maybe after they put a little distance between themselves and .500 then they should be in the Top 10.

Some possible replacements are the previously noted Hebron (they beat Flower Mound),Keller at 12-6 and 4-1 in district, what about Ft Worth Paschal at 12-4 and just went on a 6 game winning streak after beating Allen, Arl Lamar at 11-5-1 & 5-0 in District and on an 8 game winning streak, and Tyler Lee is always tough and are at 11-6, beat Arl Martin early and stayed with Poteet while having 3 errors and only lost 6-5.

I think hot teams and teams with solid winning records both overall and in District should get a nod over other good teams that might just be rounding into shape. JMO

Tycho,
Tap the brake a little bit before throwing the p-word out there so carelessly, my friend.

Naw, you guys are set...some us will be throwing BP to our boys in the cages whilest you guys are traveling to s-e-x-y destinations like Abilene for playoff series...

We beat FW Paschal 13-0 in the district opener and we are 12-5. However, we do not even deserve a sniff at those rankings until we get our #1 back from injury.

Rankings are for message board fodder and nothing else. I'll take a playoff spot and a 16-14 record over a mid-season ranking any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Giving up so soon? I see a complete turn around and sweeping the rest of our games

The only polls that matter are the ones that come out in mid June when the season is over, relax and enjoy your season. Good luck to all.

OK - Coach you are right, polls are for fodder but it helps us keep track of the various teams.

The whole bottom of the poll lost tonight, now what?

Maybe Mans-Summit belongs in the top, or North Mesquite,or Mesquite or what about Rockwall?

Even with Hebron losing I know they are a good team and I am sure the same can be said for Allen and Berkner. As far as my additions, Arl Lamar lost and so did Tyler Lee.

Are there really only 5 or 6 top teams and 10 or so others that are good but still try to figure it out?

What other team are missing a #1 starter or their top hitter that we don't know about?

Acowboyfan,

I agree with all points, but especially the last one. We have been playing without 2 starters the last 3 weeks. Don't know if it would have made a difference in 1 of our district losses, but it would have in the other. We don't want anyone to feel sorry for us. Our sophomores have stepped up and done a great job filling in.

Oh, I do disagree with you on Mansfield Summit being ranked. We'd rather just "lay in the weeds" if you know what I mean.

dallasblog,

4A rankings??????

I'm sure DB is waiting for the re-match between HP and Poteet this Friday before posting the 4A poll.
