In the Greater Catholic League South, No. 5 Elder will face a hot Archbishop Moeller team that sits at No. 10 this week. If Big Moe wins, they’ll clinch the title. An Elder win will give the Panthers a piece of the championship that they could win outright with a win against arch-rival La Salle on October 20.
Massillon Washington will host Washington, DC-power St. John’s College HS this week. The Tigers are ranked No. 15 nationally. SJC is ranked No. 31 in the HSFA 300.
St. X, ranked No. 183 in America, takes-on Kentucky’s Trinity, ranked No. 209 in our latest national rankings.
