5A Rankings

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>5A like we said before has some teams that can bean anyone. Teams like Orem who lose a couple of games and then beat a great team from Las Vegas in Liberty. Timpview can lace it up against anyone and get wins. Lehi is always good and has some dudes that can score. Salem Hills is a tough out and even Payson can beat anyone. Provo has shown that they are on the rise. Here is the current Top 10 as Week 1 has come to an end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#1 Alta</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1298532' first='Jaxon' last='Johnson'] is really good and Nash Hink and [player_tooltip player_id='1057035' first='Ace' last='Reiser'] are tough. They have a fun one against Brighton on Tuesday. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#2 Woods Cross</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Might be the best team in 5A as they are just super tough as [player_tooltip player_id='969245' first='Jaxon' last='Smith'] and [player_tooltip player_id='934027' first='Mason' last='Bendinger'] have been super tough. [player_tooltip player_id='1561701' first='Alex' last='Brey'] is a solid piece on that team as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#3 Lehi</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1057037' first='Cooper' last='Lewis'] and company can beat you in many ways, especially with their outside shooting. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#4 Timpview</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the surprises this year and [player_tooltip player_id='934031' first='James' last='Rust'] is having a great senior year and [player_tooltip player_id='1278448' first='Dean' last='Rueckert'] is showing that he is the premier wing in the state. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#5 Olympus</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1057020' first='Jordan' last='Barnes'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1057034' first='Dutch' last='Dowdell'] are the duo that can get anyone. These two gave AF run for their money and they have no height.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#6 Murray</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Murray probably has one of the best scorers in the state in [player_tooltip player_id='934036' first='Chudi' last='Anosike']. [player_tooltip player_id='934037' first='Jaxson' last='Workman'] is a three point making machine. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#7 Juan Diego Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Do not forget that JDCHS will play in 5A during the playoffs and they have a solid big in Dorelle Desire and a shooter in [player_tooltip player_id='1190621' first='Noah' last='Bendinger']. great role players like Camilo Ramirez and [player_tooltip player_id='1190620' first='Bryton' last='Valdes']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#8 Springville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Could be a sneaky team as they are led by a freshman. Best 2026 big in the state in [player_tooltip player_id='1278439' first='Jamyn' last='Sondrup']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>#9 Cottonwood</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Has shown flashes but they need more from [player_tooltip player_id='1384525' first='Chris' last='Cox'] and Aiden Oliphant. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>#10 Cedar Valley</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Slowly slipping and they have talent. Ty Christensen and [player_tooltip player_id='1164726' first='Jax' last='Allen'] need to show more if they're going to get big wins and stay in the Top 10. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
