Three Treasure Valley teams top final high school football rankings of the year
Only eight teams are still alive in each classification as the high school football playoffs march on. And with the quarterfinals coming up, the final state media poll was released Tuesday evening.
Two Treasure Valley teams finished the season as the No. 1 team in their classification — Skyview in 4A and Fruitland in 3A. Fruitland went wire-to-wire as 3A’s top-ranked team, while Skyview has earned the 4A top ranking in every poll but the preseason rankings.
The top spot in the 5A rankings remains split between Coeur d’Alene and defending state champ Mountain View. If both win their quarterfinal matchup, they would meet in the state semfinals.
