The three Ohio teams in the High School Football America National Top 25 continue to impress and climb in the national rankings. Colerain and La Salle each moved-up four spots in the latest rankings, while St. Edward climbs two places.
Defending Division I champ St. Ed, whose only loss was to #23 St. Joseph Regional (Montvale, New Jersey) is ranked #6 this week.
Colerain vaults to #11 after its second win this season over a very good St. Xavier team. This week, the Cardinals will face Elder, which was ranked #42 in last week’s The Other 25.
Defending Division 2 champ La Salle jumps from #25 to #21.
