The two big pieces of news in the HS Club rankings are first off that the top of the rankings held up quite well with close games in two key matchups of top-10 teams; secondly, we're adding several teams because leagues are starting or about to start.

We've got some Maryland teams starting, too, but we're going to wait for league games to see exactly where they all fall. But we've gone the opposite direction and put six new Californian teams in the rankings, albeit in the lower tier, as they start league play this coming weekend.

Two Pennsylvania teams also come in with Doylestown and Downingtown both showing well in games. With all this action, teams that have been idle for a while drift down. We've also dropped a few Florida teams, but even as their season end, they might be able to move up pending a complete audit of the results.

And about #1 ... hey, somebody has to show that Charlotte is vulnerable.
