Sorry, I didn't have access to my databases (databii?) at that time.

I have La Quinta ranked 60th overall in SCSBOA field bands and 7th in SCSBOA Class 3A at the start of the fall 2011 season. My rankings are based on the prior four years' performances.

I personally don't get to see them very often because they are "way out there" relative to my location.

I believe that they are 4a, is this wrong?

Last year they were 3A. If they're back to 4A this year, I'll make the change once that happens.

Hostrauser, you take all the fun out of fishing for opinions and compliments. :td: I was really hoping you would say something like " you are great!!", "you are awesome!!", or "you are going to take it all this year!!"

Yes, this was my lame attempt at being funny. :lol:

I heard that they have been doing pretty good and it's their 1st year in 5A for WBA i think. They did SCJA last year which is known to be a very easy circuit so we might not know what to expect

When can we see your rankings for every division? I like to see your thoughts now and then see how things move around during the season. 8-)
