The Hornets were ranked fifth among Division 1 high school teams in the pre-season poll. Saline defeated Hudsonville 24-15 Friday. When the new MHSFCA poll came out today, Saline had fallen to sixth.

Belleville, a possible early round playoff opponent, ranks first.

The only other SEC Red team in the poll is Dexter, ranked fourth in Division 2.
