For the first time this year, there’s a new No. 1 team in the High School Football America 100 national rankings powered by BlackMP Living Water. IMG Academy (Florida) moves to the top of the heap after two-time defending Texas champ North Shore was beaten in the Class 6A Division I state semifinals. North Shore had spent the entire season at No. 1 prior to its loss on Saturday to Westlake, which moves from No. 7 to No. 4 in the latest rankings.
