This weeks rankings have three teams that every ranking team member voted then to be number one, Conway Springs, Axtell and Cunningham.

In class 5A Mill Valley, Blue Valley and St Thomas Aquinas each have received number one votes and it is the tightest race amongst all classes.

The next closest race is in 8-man I where Hoxie, Little River and Leoti have also each received number one votes.

Did you hear about the man arrested at the Mulvane vs Salina South football game last Friday night? Here is the story here. We pray for the safety of all officials at all games and that includes Athletic Directors, Principals, Police Officers, Coaches, Referees, EMS, Chain Gangs, PA announcers, Clock Operators and Radio Play by Play folks.

Emotions can get out of hand at ball games. Many a time, over my lifetime of watching games, have I seen everyone on that list above get yelled at by someone at a ball game.

The first rankings after the first game of the season are out. These are always fun to watch, but we all know the real rankings will be at the conclusion of the season.

Norton, Axtell and Cunningham are the only teams that received all number one votes from the ranking team.

The closest voting between number one and number two teams was Hoxie and Leoti, followed by Andale and Cheney. The ranking team is pretty much split in half trying to decide who should be number one and who should be number two.

Let me encourage all of you to get to your local high school football game this week or at least a couple games this fall. High school football, my guess, sells more tickets and has more fans at their games than KU or K-State combined, when you consider there are at least 350 high school teams in our state.

Go to the high school game and check the score of the college game on your phone.
