After releasing my Top Ten for each classification in the state, I now tackle the unenviable task of trying to put together a Top 25 regardless of classification.
A Power Poll of the best teams in the state. There will be no right answer, but I’m sure there will be a couple wrong answers. It never hurts trying to rank the state, and the picture will hopefully clear up a little more as the season goes on.
But without further ado, here is my first crack at the Sandy’s Spiel Top 25:
- Shiloh
- Miller Grove
- Norcross
- Westlake
- Greenforest Christian
- McIntosh
- Wheeler
- Milton
- Pebblebrook
- Lithonia
- Seminole County
- Pace Academy
- St. Francis
- Laney
- Jonesboro
- Collins Hill
- Jenkins
- Morgan County
- East Jackson
- Liberty County
- Gainesville
- Bainbridge
- Sandy Creek
- Crawford County
- Brunswick
Breakdown by class:
6A – 7 (No. 1, No. 3, No. 4, No. 7, No. 8, No. 9, No. 16)
5A – 4 (No. 2, No. 6, No. 21, No. 25)
4A – 5 (No. 10, No. 15, No. 20, No. 22, No. 23)
3A – 4 (No. 14, No. 17, No. 18, No. 19)
2A – 3 (No. 11, No. 12, No. 24)
1A – 2 (No. 5, No. 13)
I saw several of these teams this summer but Cedar Shoals was the best squad out of all of them.
