They are a solid team but I don't feel they are even the best team in our state.

Even if they were the best team in the state, I would be surprised that they would merit this ranking.

They swapped them in for Chester because they won. Sanford beat a pretty good team nationally give them the respect that they are owed

No they weren't swapped with Chester. Did you check the prior poll? Not saying Sanford is not good but your comment is wrong. Here is the week 1 East Coast poll from the same website. As you can see Chester was not among the listed teams. Interestingly, Westtown is not in the rankings on that site and that should be an interesting matchup.

If Chester would have won they would be in the 8th spot but they didn't so Sanford gets it

I agree w your comment.

Sanford is a well disciplined oiled machine, Stan Waterman can rival any top high school coach in the country. So for many teams going against Sanford, like Chester discovered, u gotta put them away because they will never quit. Congrats Sanford for the recognition.

Westtown comes in 5-0 and has 6 players 6'6" or taller. Tonight's game should be a big challenge for Sanford.

Its great that a DE school is getting some respect and recognition! Delaware is a very small bball community so when any school gets accolades we should all be proud. Yes Stan is a great coach...

Westtown wins 87-55. Probably the best team Sanford will play all year outside of Slam Dunk to the Beach.

Nice Win vs. Chester Sanford. West town reloads each year, not a bad loss.
