1. Good Counsel, 6-0, LW 1
After a 41-14 win over O’Connell last Friday, it’s beginning to look like Good Counsel and everyone else.
Next: Saturday at McNamara, 2
2. DeMatha, 3-2, LW 2
The Stags were challenged by Paul VI, which either shows that DeMatha is beatable by someone other than Good Counsel this year or shows that Paul VI is a whole lot better than 2-4.
Next: Saturday at Gonzaga, 2
3. St. John’s, 5-1, LW 3
The Cadets are getting closer and closer to knocking DeMatha out of the No. 2 spot. They can make a case for that by having a better showing against Paul VI than DeMatha did. St. John’s is loving the maturation of Ed Thomas at quarterback.
Next: Friday at Paul VI, 7
4. O’Connell, 4-2, LW 4
The Knights lost their second straight game against a top WCAC opponent but did play hard against Good Counsel. O’Connell is still in good shape and in the driver’s seat for a playoff berth.
Next: Saturday at Archbishop Carroll, 2
5. Gonzaga, 2-4, LW 7
A win over McNamara is huge for the Eagles. A win over DeMatha would be much, much bigger. The offensive line will have to step up again for the Eagles.
Next: Saturday vs. DeMatha, 2
6. McNamara, 3-3, LW 5
There wasn’t many good things to take from Saturday’s game for McNamara. In more bad news, Good Counsel is next. However, this could be the perfect opportunity for McNamara to erase Saturday’s memory.
Next: Saturday vs. Good Counsel, 2
7. Paul VI, 2-4, LW 6
The Panthers have shown they have the ability to challenge some of the WCAC’s top teams. They weren’t far behind DeMatha and were extremely close to beating McNamara. Now they just need to win one and they get another chance Friday.
Next: Friday vs. St. John’s, 7
8. Bishop Ireton, LW 8
The momentum Bishop Ireton gained in a win over previously undefeated St. Stephen’s/St. Agnes was lost in a loss to St. Christopher’s. The offense put up 21 but the defense can’t give up 45 points.
Next: Friday at Riverdale Baptist, 7
9. Archbishop Carroll, LW 9
Carroll couldn’t handle St. John’s and O’Connell won’t be much easier if at all.
Next: Saturday vs. O’Connell, 2
10. St. Mary’s Ryken, LW 10
St. Mary’s Ryken is still taking its lumps but has a chance to get its second win of the season Saturday as it faces winless Sidwell Friends of the MAC conference.
Next: Saturday at Sidwell Friends, 2:30
