Malvern Prep is the biggest mover in the latest High School Football America Pennsylvania Top 25 that is created with our proprietary algorithm. The Friars, who move-up seven spots to No. 10 this week, will have a chance to improve that position this week when they face No. 24 Berks Catholic, which moves up one spot this week.
Others making small moves upward this week are: North Allegheny, up one spot to No. 7; Freedom (Bethlehem) moves up one to No. 17; and Upper St. Clair picks up two spots to No. 18. Also moving up a spot are: Garnet Valley (No. 20), Cathedral Prep (No. 21), Springfield-Delco (No. 22) and Central Dauphin (No. 23).
Harrisburg is the only new team this week at No. 25. Former No. 16 McKeesport drops out after losing to Penn-Trafford.
