I'm not sure what you mean about declining from the 06 season. Ben Lippen was in the State Championship last year (2007). This year they have had a rough start but they are a young squad with only 2 seniors, they should not be counted out this year although they will have to work harder then they have had to in the past to make it to the Championship game. I'm not sure why this year they are ranked lower then some teams like OP but they are definately better then the rankings give them credit for.
