How does these rankings even work? Orem beat American Fork in their season
opener and beat Layton in preseason play, but are inexplicably not in the top 20
teams in the state. Let's face it, everyone else in 4A this year is just
playing for second place.

I really don't think that Orem can beat Highland and especially Cottonwood.
SO when it comes down to it...Orem you are playing for like third or lower.

How many of the Orem wins are at home? If those are road wins then certainly
some credibility can be given.

Where is Panguitch in all of this? I would like to see some of these smaller
schools play the larger schools. A lot of the 2A and 1A schools could beat most
of the big schools, but they don't get the publicity that they deserve!

Panguitch. hmmm. lets put them up against 5A/4A powers like: Lone Peak,
Cottonwood, Skyline, and Highland and we'll see exactly why they're
not on that top 20. It's not about how many teams you beat, its who you
beat. not enough people give this ranking polls enough credit.

Panguitch isn't here because they couldn't go up against the likes of
Cottonwood, Skyline, Lone Peak or Highland. I think Rich is the only 1A team in
the state that can go up against the big dogs and come out of top. Rich has to
play these big teams just to get competition. Panguitch? Please they
can't even stand in Rich's shadow when it comes to volleyball!

I agree with the person above me. Rich makes an effort to compete, but if you
look at Panguitch's past seasons, have they even made an effort to go up
state and play?

Its a joke that you guys even put Highland up there as a contender when they got
knocked out in the 1st round of State Championships last year w/their whole team
that is returning this year...same team, same results. Now Cottonwood...yeah
but Highland?...NO.

That's so true about Highland, over-rated for nothing---nada---zilch. Its
too early in the season to tell but I don't see them as one of the strong
teams standing, I mean they almost lost to Olympus High...C'mon now.

A lot of you idiots in the Salt Lake Valley have no idea where Panguitch even
is. Like was said up above, Panguitch could beat most of the bigger schools.
Not all of the schools if some of you could read! Panguitch does compete every
year for the state title, but they have not been able to beat Rich yet, but you
just wait. If we had the funding to go play up north more often then we would
and we would do very well.

Go Bobcats!!! -- You say they can beat most of the bigger schools, haven't
seen it yet. And don't use excuses on why you guys can't come up
north. EXCUSES do not equal WINS. Sorry!

to ramsfan----hahaha. did you see the first two sets? and that 26-24 score was
the third set, olympus varsity played JV and Sophomores the 3rd set. yeah
highland won 3 of the 4, that's true, but you're not looking at the
whole picture. Cottonwood took 2nd 2005, state champions 2006, ranked no. 1
starting the season through now, finishing 1st at two tournaments, and 2nd at
the Asics Tournament this year. highland came no where near the state
championships last season.
