TRIBUNE SUPER 35 RANKINGS
1. Charter Oak (4-4) — I sat in the PrepXtra studio on Friday and thought seriously of making Charter Oak No. 1 despite its .500 record because it’s playing better than anyone at the moment, and beating solid teams, like Los Osos and Chino Hills. I know they lost to Bishop Amat, and they’re winning in the Sierra, not the Serra. But you have to reward hot, and the Chargers are just that. Hot.
2. Bishop Amat (5-3) – Let’s face it, Bishop Amat blew its chance last week to control its own destiny against Alemany and now it has to win at Crespi on Friday to keep its slight playoff hopes alive. Amat has never been that great away from home, so if it has any tricks up its sleeve, now’s the time.
3. Chino Hills (6-2) — The Huskies know by losing to Charter Oak they will not win the league title because Charter Oak isn’t losing to Ayala or Claremont to finish the season. But who’s chances do you like better in the Inland playoffs, Charter Oak or Chino Hills? It’s close.
4. Glendora (6-2) — What happened to the blue-collar 6-0 start? Rancho Cucamonga and Etiwanda is what happened to it. Glendora’s better than everyone expected. But they’re not that much better than everyone expected.
5. Diamond Ranch (7-1) – The Southeast Division’s second ranked team found a way to get past Rowland despite 19 suspensions. All that stands in the way of an undefeated league title run are Walnut and Bonita. I say they run the table.
6. Los Altos (7-1) – You find out how good Los Altos is the next two weeks against Bonita and West Covina. We don’t talk about them enough for a one-loss team, but if they sweep their final two, I’m jumping on the wagon.
7. Arroyo (6-1) – I’m starting to wonder if the Knights are serious Mid-Valley contenders. I’m not saying they’re better than Monrovia, but I’m starting to think they might be able to give them a game.
8. Pomona (9-0) — For the time since I’ve done rankings, Pomona is in the top ten and deservedly so. I can also tell you right now when they play San Dimas in Week 10, I’m taking the Devils.
9. Bonita (5-3) — So many thought the Bearcats would win the Hacienda after adding Jake Payton, but they’re in a fight just to make the playoffs. They’re good, but shouldn’t they be better than this?
10. San Dimas (4-4) — I guess I could call the Saints the Boys of September and Men of October, just like Charter Oak for starting 0-4 and going 4-0. But the Valle Vista allows you to do that more than being hot. And truth be told, they haven’t played the hottest VVL team yet, Pomona.
The Rest: 11. Diamond Bar (5-4); 12. Damien (4-4); 13. Rosemead (7-1); 14. South Hills (3-5); 15. Ayala (3-5); 16. West Covina (5-4); 17. Baldwin Park (6-2); 18. Azusa (6-2); 19. Northview (6-2); 20. Bassett (5-3); 21. La Puente (5-3); 22. Duarte (4-4); 23. Claremont (1-7); 24. Covina (4-5); 25. Mountain View (3-5); 26. Walnut (2-6), 27. Rowland (2-7); 28. South El Monte (2-6); 29. Sierra Vista (2-6); 30. Nogales (2-6); 31. Gladstone (2-6); 32. Workman (3-5); 33. El Monte (1-7); 34. Ganesha (2-6), 35. Wilson (1-8).
