Then there’s Champion, whose dominance is becoming increasingly difficult to overlook. The Chargers improved to 5-0 with a 61-32 win against Anderson, continuing what has been an impressive start to the campaign. Harlan also re-enters the Top 10 after defeating Marshall, 59-14, last week, with the Hawks now sitting at 4-1 heading into their bye.
The 4A ranks, meanwhile, set the stage for one of the week’s most intriguing matchups. Tivy (4-0) and Davenport (3-1) are both unbeaten in District 13-4A Division I and now prepare to clash Friday. With the district race still taking shape, the matchup could ultimately play a major role in determining the division champion.

10. Davenport Wolves (4A) — 3-1 | 1-0 in District 13-4A D1 | 56-41 win vs. Canyon Lake | Next: vs. Tivy (10/2)
That Boerne-Alamo Heights clash should provide another intriguing measuring stick for two undefeated programs, while Champion’s perfect start remains intact following a 59-3 victory over Lehman. Madison (3-0) and Davenport (2-1) also return from their respective bye weeks, with both set to open district play.
The pecking order could shift quickly, with a stronger slate of closer, more compelling matchups on tap this week.

Smithson Valley (2-0), Johnson (2-0), Alamo Heights (3-0), and Brennan (2-1) each took care of business in commanding fashion, while Madison improved to 3-0 with a critical 24-16 victory over San Marcos. The win also propels the Mavs higher into the rankings this week.
Making their first appearance in the Top 10, the Champion Chargers (3-0) are looking every bit the team they were a season ago, when they advanced three rounds into the playoffs. Canyon also moves up the rankings after a 20-12 win over Brandeis, while Pieper rounds out the Top 10 despite a narrow 55-49 loss to Temple.
The road ahead gets tougher, and the margin for error gets smaller.
