One week into the Colorado prep football season, and there’s already new No. 1 teams in two classifications in the .
Resurrection Christian leap-frogged an idle Eaton in Class 2A, while Sanford benefitted from a rare Sedgewick County loss to take the top spot in 8-Man. Meanwhile, Cherokee Trail entered the 5A poll after beating Mullen, while 4A had four new teams enter the rankings: Erie (6), Fruita Monument (7), Chatfield (9) and Golden (10).
