Move over, Mancos. There’s a new No. 1 atop Colorado’s Class 8-man football rankings.
Haxtun (7-0) took the top spot in the CHSAANow.com prep football rankings after defeating last week’s No. 3-ranked Sedgwick County, 36-12, on Friday. The Fightin’ Bulldogs garnered 12 of the 14 first-place votes to leap over Mancos (4-0).
The top spot in the other classes remained the same with Valor Christian (5A), Montrose (4A), Roosevelt (3A), Eaton (2A), Limon (1A) and Cheyenne Wells (6-man) remaining at the No. 1 positions.
