High School Girls' Lacrosse West Region Preview

No. 1 Colorado Academy (Colo.) again starts atop the West Region rankings. The Mustangs are the only team that was unbeaten last year in the region’s top 10. They face an early test of their mettle against No. 5 Sacred Heart (Calif.) in an appealing opener March 8.

Most of the region will also be underway by the end of next week as well, and there are plenty of opportunities throughout the season to see the best teams go head-to-head. 

Our West rankings cover the Mountain, Pacific and Northwest regions and at least part of the Southwest. Rankings are compiled by USA Lacrosse writers with input from coaches around the country.
