Bishop Feehan Fanatics (2024 Rank: 22) You don't really see a Student Section pack the stands for a girls basketball game on a consistent basis and that is a shame because it can be a physical game on the ladies side, but Bishop Feehan are really a bunch of Fanatics and go nut for whatever sport they are cheering for, including girls basketball (we just checked, Top 5 girls basketball program in the state, they're legit!) The Fanatics went nuts and I'm sure they rattled some opposing teams! They definitely rattled the Student Section in the voting section in Massachusetts and in the National Voting Bracket as they made it to the Elite 8 where they lost a close one to the eventual National Champions. It was an amazing run and an amazing school year...

2024-25 CONNECTICUT BASKETBALL STUDENT SECTION TOP 25 RANKINGS Special Thanks to @ciacbarstool for their help East Haven Hive (2024 Rank: NR) In what is considered the best state for the Winter Student Section, it is hard to be the best when you have Student Sections that are just as crazy as you, but the Hive packed the stands and stood out not just in the stands, but in the voting booth. The Hive battled and with a state loaded with Student Section talent, had the top seed in the Student Section playoffs. The Hive had a great run in the Student Section playoffs, but fell short. While they didn't get the National Title, one thing is for sure, the East Haven Hive is the 2024-2025 Connecticut Winter Student Section Champions. "It took a lot to...

The time has come to start ranking 50 states that we covered this football season.  To say I’m overwhelmed with the work that comes along with this is a huge huge understatement. We had 10 Student Section of the Week winners in Massachusetts and that helped us determine who had the best Student Section and which ones wanted it more. Just showing up in large crowds isn’t enough. It might fool other outlets that don’t cover Student Sections, but not us. We have to know how bad you want it and marketing is key.  You will see top-notch Student Sections miss out at the top spot, but we kept saying it over and over and over again, in order to be considered number one, you have to win the Student Section of the Week title....

In 2015, yours truly began covering Student Sections in Orange County, California. We expanded to Southern California in 2017 and in 2021, we added four more states and added 15 more states. We went to 40 states two years ago. We went to all 50 states in winter of 2023. No one has ever done that before…until now! This is still a one-man operation for the most part, but we have some help with some partners on Instagram like OC Student Sections, Stadium Geeks, Maryland Student Section Rater, NorCal Student Sections and many more. I know that Student Sections have a lot of work to do to get the students to the games to cheer on their classmates and go along with the theme and make sure they don’t cause trouble. These student sections deserve...
