| 11. | Ephrata | 2-0 | NR | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beat Manheim Central for the first time in more than a quarter century – last win was 1997 – to grab the always transitional No. 11 spot. Not sure if the win over the Barons was an upset? | ||||
| 10. | Lampeter-Strasburg | 2-0 | 11 | |
| Still plenty of landmines ahead, but defense has been nothing short of impressive to date. | ||||
| 9. | Wyomissing | 1-1 | 8 | |
| Was competitive all the way against Haverford School and was the underdog in this game. Didn’t score a touchdown and that is a concern for the big picture going forward. | ||||
| 8. | Wilson West Lawn | 2-0 | NR | |
| Bulldogs have drifted a little into the middle of the Class 6A pack of teams. Looks like 2024 might be a bounce back into the upper tier. Favorable early schedule as well. | ||||
| 7. | Cumberland Valley | 1-1 | 10 | |
| Nice bounce back for the Eagles, but CV was always going to roll over Carlisle. Still not sure about this team, but I’ll ride the wave. | ||||
| 6. | Dallastown | 2-0 | 6 | |
| They have been solid through eight quarters, but more of a full metal jacket test will come this week from Manheim Central. Then we’ll know more. | ||||
| 5. | Bishop McDevitt | 1-1 | 1 | |
| Had more than enough opportunities to put away Harrisburg in a game that went back and forth with big swings. The Crusaders defense wilted down the stretch and couldn’t finish this one off. | ||||
| 4. | Harrisburg | 1-1 | 7 | |
| Not sure the Cougars could have faced any more adversity than what they faced to pull off an improbable win at McDevitt in the renewal of what once was known as the Market Street Madness game. | ||||
| 3. | Central York | 1-1 | 3 | |
| Competitive all the way with the No. 1 ranked Blue Streaks, just didn’t have enough offense in the tank to be the difference maker on an otherwise pretty level playing field. | ||||
| 2. | State College | 2-0 | 4 | |
| More than 100 points scored in eight quarters to kick off the season. Barometer test this week with Harrisburg on the schedule. | ||||
| 1. | Manheim Township | 2-0 | 3 | |
| Wins over Cumberland Valley and Central York to start the season. Wins were convincing victories as well backed by a defense that has surrendered 17 total points. | ||||
