| Welcome to the Elite 11, Shamrocks. Couple of impressive victories to start the season and can now show their colors with a tilt against No. 7 Wyomissing on deck. |
| 10. | Steel-High | 2-0 | 11 | |
| Cruised against Washington D.C. based Eastern, rolling up 27 first-quarter points while the Rollers’ defense snared two turnovers in the opening 12 minutes. |
| 9. | Cocalico | 1-1 | 10 | |
| Behind a defense that allowed only 155 total yards to Solanco, the Eagles picked up win No. 1 with a 35-point romp. |
| 8. | Exeter Township | 2-0 | 8 | |
| Eagles trailed Boyertown 14-9 at halftime before responding with 20 unanswered points to hold off the Bears. |
| 7. | Wyomissing | 2-0 | 7 | |
| Spartans made easy work of Pottsville and so far have outscored the opposition by a combined score of 96-7. They haven’t been tested, but the next two opponents, Trinity and Berks Catholic, have some quality. |
| 6. | State College | 1-1 | 3 | |
| Mildly troubling is that the Little Lions fell behind 28-7 to Downingtown East before putting together a late rally. State College had a 50-yard field to win it come up just short, but that sluggish start should provide this team a valuable lesson. |
| 5. | Central York | 1-0 | 6 | |
| Wins to start the season over Central Dauphin and now Cumberland Valley, the latest being a 14-0 tussle where the Panthers’ defense delivered a result, sets the table for another stellar regular season. |
| 4. | Manheim Central | 2-0 | 5 | |
| Barons used a TD pass in the final minute from Raymond Lewis to Aaron Enterline to edge Smyrna from Delaware by a point on the road. |
| 3. | Manheim Township | 2-0 | 4 | |
| Took Dallastown out behind the woodshed with 42 first-half points to post an easy victory. The power and balance of the Blue Streaks’ offense is impressive. Next up is No. 2 Harrisburg. |
| 2. | Harrisburg | 2-0 | 2 | |
| Cougars took their show on the road and dominated Delaware Valley from start to finish, led by a defense that posted a shutout. QB Shawn Lee Jr. accounted for three of the four offensive touchdowns with two passing and one rushing. |
| 1. | Bishop McDevitt | 2-0 | 1 | |
| Second consecutive week the Crusaders had to rally in the second half to get the victory. DePaul Catholic (N.J.), a state title winner like the Crusaders a year ago, led by 15 at halftime. It was a toss-up game, and McD showed its mettle again in the fourth quarter. |
