Last chance to volt your team forward. The poll will remain up through Sunday night. We’ll post final results on Monday along with the Northwest Division Tracking poll.
(Note to Cmon Man: Last we heard La Puente is in the Northwest)
As always leave a comment, send a tweet, message us on FB, or drop a line through email (gear is good). The more we learn about your team, the more they move up. To keep balance, because it is largely unscientific, we weighted the teams at the start. (point totals listed after each team)
1.) (6/13#1) Monrovia Wildcats (145): Have we talked enough about Blake Heyworth? Number one quarterback in the Mid-Valley Division?
2.) (6/13:#2) Sierra Canyon Trailblazers (92): Have not lost a game since 2010 when they lost twice to the same team…Who was that team?
3.) (6/13:#4) El Monte Lions (90): “There are Lions is El Monte and baby they are ready to roar!”
4.) (6/13:#3) San Dimas Saints (85): The Clockwork Saints. They will run the ball from a hundred different angles, take a league title and compete for a final four spot in the post-season. In other words they’re going to be okay.
5.) (6/13:#5) Arroyo Knights (75): Can OC MacMillan convert to a smashmouth game?
6.) (6/13:#7) San Gabriel Matadors (74): Nice, the dimensions on Baca roll in…or were those Mario Williams’ numbers?
7.) (6/13:#6) Paraclete Spirits (73):…Correctamundo!
8.) (6/13:#8) South El Monte Eagles (53): We saw Leo Artiaga play…We believe. (Acosta didn’t play any safety?)…
9.) (6/13:#15) Mt. View Vikings (45): Started five day poll at 25, come into last day at the nine spot. Can they find an opening into the third spot in a competitive MVL?
10.) (6/13:#11) Bell Gardens Lancers (42): Up a spot, information coming forth…That’s how we like it. See you this afternoon.
11.) (6/13:#9) South Pasadena Tigers (37): Will cut SP some slack because its graduation week.
12.) (6/13:#12) Alhambra Moors (36): Focus on today because only today can change tomorrow…Nothing can change yesterday.
13.) (6/13:#13) Northview Vikings (36): Stuck in a log jam at 13…no big deal. Need to pull 2008 tape to figure out how to beat SD…A little more critical.
14.) (6/13:#10) Baldwin Park Braves (35): A four spot drop…No room to rest…If you want to shock the world you have to stay charged.
15.) (6/13:#16) La Canada Spartans (34): We had a feeling about Paynter…So he pounds the rock…passing game opens a bit…Spartans competitive…Fans come out to watch—Okay, let’s keep it real.
16.) (6/13:#14) Rosemead Panthers (33): Really Mead? You slack off in the MVL you’re going to miss the playoffs again.
17.) (6/13:#18) Schurr Spartans (32): A new version of Rhino…and this one carries the ball…Should be fun.
18.) (6/13:#17) San Marino Titans (31): How much are they going to miss Kwame Do?
19.) (6/13:24) Gabrielino Eagles (31): From oblivion to 19…with a bullet…Any team with a quarterback named “Elijah” has us interested. “Fire From The Sky” offense.
20.) (6/13:#19) Covina Colts (29): No offense C-Town…but the WC game scares us.
21.) (6/13:20) Mark Keppel Aztecs: (22): Down a spot…mess with the bull, you get the horns.
22.) (6/13:#21) Montebello Oilers (21): Not real happy with what we’re hearing out of Oil Town…because we’re not hearing anything…It’s okay, it’s only June.
23.) (6/13:#22) Temple City Rams (20): You know the Hitchcock teams in the 70’s weren’t exactly oversized.
24.) (6/13:#23) Pomona Red Devils (12):…”If you feel you have reached this recording by error…”
25.) (6/13:UR) Calvary Chapel Grizzlies (10): The Grizz climb into the Top 25…Open season against Western Christian (we know some folks there) on August 31st.
(Others) Blair (9), Brentwood School (9), Wilson (8), Nogales (7), Pasadena Marshall (4), Viewpoint (5), Kilpatrick (8), Windward (3)
This will run for the next five working days. Then we will launch a Northwest Division poll.
The official Mid Valley Sports Top 25s will come out August 1st.
