There are a few interesting changes. After strong tournament runs, both El Rancho and Whittier Christian made the baseball rankings. A brutal preseason scheduled knocked the La Mirada baseball team off its Div. 2 ranking while St. Paul remained unchanged in Div. 4. The La Mirada softball team also fell from its perch in Div. 2. The Whittier Christian softball team moved from No. 1 to “others” in Div. 5 while boys volleyball and softball had no representation.
