The Cedar Valley and surrounding areas of Northeast Iowa have several outstanding volleyball teams, according to the latest rankings released by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union on Thursday (Sept. 24, 2015).

In all, 17 area teams are featured in the most-recent survey, with Janesville (Class-A) and West Delaware (Class-4A) continuing to lead their respective polls.

The biggest movement for area teams during the past week occurred in Class-2A, where Wapsie Valley made the biggest jump of any squad ranked in the top-15. The Warriors climbed five spots to No. 5 following Tuesday night's five-set win over No. 6 Dike-New Hartford, which maintained its position in this week's poll.

Also in Class-2A, Grundy Center moved up three spots to No. 8, while Sumner-Fredericksburg fell three positions to No. 7. Starmont remains at No. 13. Denver is ranked 14th.

Joining top-ranked Janesville in the Class-1A top-15 are Tripoli and Don Bosco, while Waterloo Columbus Catholic, La Porte City Union and Center Point-Urbana anchor the middle of the Class-3A rankings for a second-straight week.

In Class-4A, Charles City climbed up one spot to No. 7. Behind the Comets, Waverly-Shell Rock moved up three positions to No. 8 while Independence rose to No. 12 from No. 14.

Cedar Falls continue to have a good season. The Tigers maintained their grip on the No. 4 spot in Class-5A by winning the Dike-New Hartford Tournament on Saturday, Sept. 19. Their run to the championship included wins over four ranked teams -- Iowa City High, Janesville, Sumner-Fredericksburg, and the host Wolverines.
