Softball Poll
Comments: Playoffs begin this week. No comments through the end of state playoffs.
Reminder. Polls updated after each playoff round but are only Top Ten.
Final poll is based on point of elimination. District champions who do not make the regional quarterfinals are the honorable mention teams. First and second are acknowledged, then tie for third, tie for fifth, tie for ninth and tie for 17th based on elimination round.
Congratulations on a great regular season.
