  1. Looks good Josh, except for single A… You’ve got teams overranked in the top 10 that either shouldn’t be there or should be lower. And a few “A” teams as Honorable Mention that should actually be in the top 10!

    Is Northwest really deserving of being #10? Either Line Mountain, Bloomsburg, or Old Forge should be there instead.

    Thanks for doing these each week. I always look forward to them. On average your rankings are probably the most accurate in the state.
