With numerous big games and one huge upset, 5A sees some changes in the Top 10.

Douglas County, Legacy and Pomona all go down this week, while Columbine, Mullen, Mountain Vista and Thomas Jefferson remain unbeaten.

 

1.Columbine

Last week’s turbulent waters in 5A did not rock the battleship that is Columbine.  The Rebels rolled once again this time 55-6 over Sand Creek.

 

2.Mullen

The Mustangs took care of Eaglecrest 44-14 to remain unbeaten and atop the Centennial League.  A Smoky Hill squad that likes to toss the ball could test the secondary.

 

3. Mountain Vista

The Golden Eagles move up to the three spot and now hold sole possession of the Continental League lead with the victory over Rangeview.

 

4. Thomas Jefferson

The Spartans rolled over Montbello 41-6 and a quick look at the schedule shows the potential for them to run the table in the regular season.

 

5.Arvada West

Many people, myself included, did not give the Wildcats their due.  Last week Arvada West brought home a win over rival Pomona by shutting down the Panther run game, this week they will need to keep the Mojo going as they face #1 ranked Columbine.

 

6. Douglas County

Ouch, the Huskies lost to previously winless Regis.  Look for a ton of focus out of Douglas County this week as they take on a very talented Heritage squad.

 

7. Cherry Creek

The Bruins dispatched Smoky Hill with ease 42-7, this week they take on a Boulder squad coming off a big win against Overland.

 

8. Bear Creek

Posted forty-two points on Lakewood and should get more this week against winless Sand Creek.

 

9.Horizon 

Debuts in the top ten after the big win over rival Legacy.  In the past two games, Horizon has outscored opponents 73-6.

 

10.Legacy

Hopes to have all the bad out of them after the loss to Horizon.  They will need to refocus as they take on Fort Collins Thursday night.

 

Each week throughout the season, PrepColorado will bring you the 5A top ten.  Get on the message board and let us know who your top ten is.
