1. Westlake (3-0, 1-0)
Previous ranking: 1
Devon Smith, Evan Harris and Antoine Reese combined for close to 300 yards and four touchdowns on the ground, as Westlake ran past McDonough 37-7 last Friday. The Wolverines’ defense proved equally tough, holding the Rams without a first down in the second half.
This week: vs. Great Mills, Friday at 7 p.m.
2. Lackey (2-1, 1-0)
Previous ranking: 2
Lackey’s defense used last week’s contest against Thomas Stone as another chance to shine. The Chargers scored two defensive touchdowns and shut out the Cougars 25-0. Through three weeks, including two against powerhouses Urbana and Patuxent, Lackey has allowed just 13 points.
This week: vs. Northern, Friday at 7 p.m.
3. Patuxent (2-1, 1-0)
Previous ranking: 4
The Panthers rebounded from a heartbreaking Week 2 loss against Lackey with a dominating performance against Northern. Justin Ford caught seven passes for 152 yards and scored twice, while Mike Swearingen continued his impressive work on the ground with a 102-yard, two-touchdown performance in Patuxent’s 35-0 shutout of Northern.
This week: vs. Leonardtown, Friday at 7 p.m.
4. Huntingtown (3-0, 2-0)
Previous ranking: 3
Huntingtown continued its impressive start, rolling to 3-0 for the first time in program history. Again showcasing their balanced offense, Peter Athens completed 10 of 18 passes for 176 yards and a pair of scores and Greg Goodwin rushed for 125 yards and another two touchdowns in the Hurricanes’ 35-20 win over Calvert. The Hurricanes could face their toughest task of the season to date this week at the North Point Eagles, themselves 40-17 winners at La Plata this past week.
This week: at North Point, Friday at 7 p.m.
5. Chopticon (2-1, 1-1)
Previous ranking: 5
