6. Shorewood ^
7. Newport
8. Bainbridge Island
9. Kentridge ^
10. Gig Harbor ^

A couple of new entries in the top 10.  Kentridge comes in at number 9.  Kentridge probably should have been in the top 10 last week based on their victory over Auburn Mountainview.  Gig Harbor replaces Auburn Mountainview and depending on the outcome of their game against Bainbridge Island this Tuesday, they could move up in the rankings.  The Tide would hold sole possession of first place in the West Conference.

Shorewood moved above Newport in the rankings due to a close victory at Newport.  Shorewood beat Newport 11-10.  This contest currently gives Shorewood the 4^th seed in the North Conference.  It will be painful to see one of these teams miss out on the Regional playoff by finishing 5^th in the conference.

Bellevue moved up over Mercer Island with their 12-8 victory over Mercer Island at the Islander’s home venue.  The top 3 in the North all look competitive.   It seems anyone of them could end up with the number 2 ranking.

Curtis had a convincing victory over Bellevue this week, 12-7.  Hey Bellevue, losing 12-7 to Curtis IS a victory.  This may be the only single digit margin of victory this season for Curtis.  Good job Bellevue.

Games to watch this week –

·        Curtis at Mercer Island

·        Auburn at Kentridge

·        Gig Harbor at Bainbridge Island

·        Shorewood at Roosevelt

Curtis holds the number one spot with an impressive Tournament Championship in Oregon.  The best of the Northwest is probably in Washington.  That will be confirmed this week when Lakeridge (Curtis' opponent in the championship game) goes against the only challenger left for Lakeridge in Oregon - Newberg.  Check out Maxpreps to see who wins - or drive down to Lake Oswego to watch the game.

 

The Auburn School District tournament gave us some early idea of other powers.  Puyallup won the tournament and strengthens its position at #5.  Not sure yet how they would do against the top 4 at this point, but Bellevue's 21-10 victory over Shorewood at Shorewood gives a slight edge to Bellevue.  It would be nice to see a Puyallup vs (MI,Roosevelt or Bellevue) game.

 

Roosevelt clearly established their position at number 2 with victories on the road against MI and Bellevue.  Maybe they should be number 1 !?!

 

This week has some interesting games as MI plays Bellevue for the first time this season and the Newport / Shorewood ranking will be determined as those two go head to head.  Newport / Shorewood could be critical in determining who goes to regionals for the North.

 

Other games that should give us additional insight are Bainbridge Island vs Peninsula and Gig Harbor vs Stadium!!
