This Monday (and every following Monday) I got to participate in the time-honored sportswriter tradition of “polling.”  That means I voted in the CIF’s poll of the top ten teams in the Pac-5 division (which the Moore League falls under), based on who I thought was best.  Here’s how the poll shook down:

1. Long Beach Poly

2. Crespi

3. Edison

4. Mission Viejo

5. Mater Dei

6. Orange Lutherna

7. Servite

8. Los Alamitos

9. Notre Dame/SO

10. St. John Bosco

Now, it’s no surprise that Poly is at the top of the list—after all, MaxPreps now has Poly as the number one team in the nation.  But with the way Lakewood, Jordan, and Compton are playing I’m surprised they didn’t jump up—I’m confident all of those teams could beat Bosco, at the very least.  Anyway, for better or worse, there they are—I’ll be putting these rankings up on Mondays from now on, when we get them in.
