NEW State Top 50 FB Rankings (1-25)

Still, we have some major movers this week, led by new No. 34 San Clemente, new No. 37 Carlsbad and new No. 40 Palos Verdes. Those getting closer to the top include Notre...

The highest riser among this group of teams is Helix of La Mesa, which is living up to preseason acclaim in the playoffs after laying an egg in its last regular season game. The Highlanders jumped up this week to No. 38 from No. 50 after big win over Eastlake. Both Sierra Canyon and Grace...
