Coaches voted on their top 15 to allow for more teams receiving votes. This is to help with coaches' playoff seeding at the end of the season. All inquiries should be directed to www.lhssca.org |

In D3, any idea on the status of Mason Cook for Northlake Christian? I do not know anything about episcopal or St Louis. However, based on the NLC kids I have seen on the club circuit, I find it hard to believe there is a more talented team in D3.

From what I know Mason Cook is completely recovered and will be playing |

District 5 has 5 teams receiving votes and 3 in the top 10. Pretty impressive.

But if you look at Division II, District 4 has 4 of 5 teams receiving votes with 3 of the 5 holding the top 3 spots. Hard to believe that only 2 of them are guaranteed automatic playoff spots |

BR is a very senior laden team. Catholic will continue to reload with club players. St. Amant should be strong, I just need to see how they replace a talent like Rantz Bourgeois. Not saying they don't have the talent to do that, but he was a special player. This should be a pretty competitive district top to bottom, as in past years. Expect EA, Dutchtown, McKinley, and Woodlawn to all put up a good fight regardless of their opponent. |

And Country Day is still receiving votes over Haynes despite a 4-0 win last year. LOL! That was early last year and over the holiday when Country Day was missing key players. In the Final 2012-13 Coach's Poll, Country Day received 34 more votes than Haynes!! Did you go to sleep after that game and just wake up? |

In the Final 2012-13 Coach's Poll, Country Day received 34 more votes than Haynes!! Did you go to sleep after that game and just wake up? Yes Haynes won 4-0 and I guess it was a little early in season, Dec. 8 to be exact. But nope, not over the holidays and Country Day was at full strength, not missing any players. Haynes lost a starting mid in that game for the season, and lost the rest of their starting mid field for the year to more injuries suffered in the Newman game a week later, and in a game against St. Martin's early January. Haynes was a weaker team at the end of the season while a rebuilding Country Day continued to improve as season progressed. Besides, preseason polls aren't very important enough to get worked up about. Country Day is a quality school and program. Should be a good game again this year. |

You may "know it for a fact," but CD fielded exactly the same lineup that played against, and beat, St. Martins a 4-2 week later. Excuse were not made after the game which was extraordinarily intensely played, and it doesn't matter. But just for the record, what you say isn't true. I dare say both CD coaches on the field at the time would confirm it.
However, at COPA a week earlier, CD was indeed quite shorthanded... Question: Why is this so important?
