| 11. | West Perry | 8-0 | 11 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| This wasn’t as easy as some of the other sure-fire wins for the Mustangs. Credit Middletown for making West Perry earn a 31-6 victory. | ||||
| 10. | Steel-High | 8-0 | 10 | |
| No real surprise the Rollers scored a season-high 67 points against winless Newport. Meat of the Steel-High schedule is on deck. | ||||
| 9. | Wyomissing | 7-1 | 9 | |
| The one-loss Spartans — it feels weird just saying that with all the success Wyomissing has enjoyed during the regular season the last half decade — host 2-5 Conrad Weiser today. | ||||
| 8. | Manheim Central | 7-1 | 8 | |
| In a matchup of one-loss squads, the Barons had no trouble rolling over Conestoga Valley by five touchdowns. | ||||
| 7. | Exeter Township | 8-0 | 7 | |
| Give credit to Hempfield for giving the Eagles a full-metal-jacket test for three quarters before Exeter pulled away with a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to win 49-27. | ||||
| 6. | Cocalico | 7-1 | 6 | |
| The Eagles took care of business in the first half, sprinting to a 30-0 cushion at intermission against overmatched Donegal before taking their foot off the gas. | ||||
| 5. | State College | 5-2 | 4 | |
| Credit the Little Lions’ defense for holding No. 3 Harrisburg to 20 points. Getting blanked offensively, though, is a red flag in the bigger picture. | ||||
| 4. | Central York | 8-0 | 5 | |
| Two sides of the coin here for the Panthers. They rallied with 13 fourth-quarter points to edge Red Lion 35-27. But they were trailing Red Lion, a 3-5 squad, after three quarters. | ||||
| 3. | Harrisburg | 7-1 | 3 | |
| To go on the road and put together a complete game sparked by a defense that went into lockdown mode and pitched a shutout on the big stage is revealing. | ||||
| 2. | Manheim Township | 8-0 | 2 | |
| There was never any expectation other than the Blue Streaks blowing out a Reading squad that came in with only one victory. Township scored all 41 of its points before halftime, too. | ||||
| 1. | Bishop McDevitt | 8-0 | 1 | |
| Never challenged, again, the Crusaders went about their business and put 42 on the board in the first half on their way to a 49-0 blanking of Red Land. It was the first shutout of the season for the McD defense. | ||||
