Milton suffered its first loss of the year over the weekend, falling to Florida power St. Thomas Aquinas, but the Eagles hold on to the top spot via their win over previously-ranked Etowah early last week. Centennial stays at No. 2 despite a loss to the Bolles School out of Jacksonville after a pair of impressive wins over Georgia schools. Lassiter fell from No. 4 to No. 6 after dropping a decision to new No. 10 Walton. Chattahoochee is also new to the rankings at No. 9.
In boys A-AAAAA, Northview and Decatur remain No. 1 and 2, respectively. Decatur knocked off No. 6 McIntosh 12-8 on Friday. Westminster moved up to No. 5 after taking out Class AAAAAA No. 8 Roswell. New No. 7 Lovett has been hot of late, knocking off McIntosh, No. 9 Holy Innocents’ and Pope. Marist moved into the poll at No. 10 as Greater Atlanta Christian dropped out after several losses.
Grayson jumped into the girls Class AAAAAA rankings at No. 9 after dispatching Archer and Newnan last week. Etowah has fallen out of the polls after a tough stretch. Alpharetta stayed in the No. 10 slot after finding some success against out-of-state opponents.
Kell managed to stay ahead of McIntosh in A-AAAAA girls at No. 3 and 4, respectively. No. 8 Starr’s Mill defeated No. 10 Columbus 15-8 earlier this week, allowing Blessed Trinity to sneak up to No. 9. Whitewater fell out of the polls after four straight losses, including a 19-3 loss to McIntosh.
