In Class AAAAAA, Etowah debuts at No. 9 after knocking Woodstock out of the top 10 after a three-set win over the Wolverines this weekend.
Sequoyah won the Cherokee County championship over the weekend and takes over the No. 1 spot in Class AAAAA. The Chiefs were the Georgia Challenge Tournament champions last month and have not dropped a set in four weeks.
Also in Class AAAAA, Starr’s Mill lost to Landmark Christian, Northgate, Blythewood (S.C.), Columbus and North Oconee and dropped from No. 3 to No. 6. Harris County was swept by Kendrick and Lee County last week and fell from the No. 4 slot to No. 7. Union Grove debuts at No. 9.

OK, Sequoyah deserves to be highly ranked. But bumping McIntosh from the top spot makes no sense. Sequoyah’s schedule the last month has been incredibly soft, and that is why the sets are piling up.
I agree…McIntosh lost to Chattahoochee and Blessed Trinity. Not exactly chump change. I still think they are the class of 5A…but Sequoyah is definitely the 2nd best team. No question there. Pope at 4 is still questionable.
6A is crazy…I still say any one of 6 teams could win it. Tonight Chattahoochee beat South Forsyth and Johns Creek to win that area. Those 3 could play 3 times and come up with 3 different results.
And finally….Harris County? REALLY? Can ANYBODY tell me a decent team they have beaten?????
