The Wolves swept rival Waukee on the road in a mid-week CIML affair. They then swept through the field at Saturday's Cedar Falls tournament. Waukee and Ankeny moved up to second and third in the rankings, respectively with Centennial's home loss to Ankeny last week. Waukee will be at Centennial on Tuesday. <a href="https://prepdig.com/player/piper-ladwig/"></a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepdig.com/2025/08/class-4a-2025-preseason-top-15/">Class 4A Preseason Rankings</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CLASS 4A RANKINGS</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>1.&nbsp;<strong>Clear Creek Amana</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2.

The Dutch has received 245 kills, 181 assists, 183 digs and 20.0 blocks from [player_tooltip player_id='389942' first='Katie' last='Scheckel']. Dallas Center-Grimes has hit its stride and leaped up the rankings with a thrilling, five-set victory at Norwalk last week. It feels like the regionals could get wild in this group. I don't envy the state, which needs to seed these teams.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CLASS 3A RANKINGS</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>1.
