Well, that's pretty laughable to have Lake Arthur in the top 15.

They're a 6 man team with 12 kids on the roster, including an 8th grader, and 2 freshmen.

I'm sure they're good at what they do, but it doesn't even make sense to me to have them in the same poll. They're ahead of schools like Onate, Silver, Hot Springs, Santa Rosa.
Heck I bet Gadsden would put a whoopin' all over 'em if it were even possible for them to play.

Kind of takes away the credibility of the whole thing IMO.

I agree with that last post. I understand them being good at what they do (are they?) but this poll should be for full squads. If there is a different poll for the smaller schools and 6 man, then great, they would be deserving. That's what happens when people vote with their heart and not their head.
