Welcome to the third edition of the composite rankings for all eight classifications. This is a new undertaking we will do comparing what the human voters with the AP poll think to what the computers over at MaxPreps as well as what the Joe Pinkos ratings are showing as the top teams in the state for each classification.
The voting points are simple: 20 points for 1st place vote, 18 points for 2nd place vote and so on all the way to 2 points for a 10th place vote.
The composite rankings will be updated weekly during the season.
