Copper Basin, Signal top area teams in prep polls

The Tennessee state high school football poll has a pair of area teams ranked No. 2 – the Signal Mountain Eagles in Class 2A and the Copper Basin Cougars in 1A.

After losses last week, the area’s two top-ranked teams – Baylor in Division II and South Pittsburg in 1A – fell. Baylor is No. 4 and South Pitt is No. 3.

Three 3A teams are ranked with Polk County at No. 4, Tyner at No. 9 and Howard at No. 10.

Boyd Buchanan is No. 10 in the 2A poll.
