Catholic, St. Thomas More's instant-classic headlines Top 20 rankings

Oct 07, 2019

By Grant Smith and Ethan MaCloud

Week 5 of LHSAA football was highlighted by one of the best games of the decade.

In this instant classic, Catholic High (BR) hit a game winning 34-yard field goal to top St. Thomas More, 52-50. The two teams combined for 102 points and 1,184 yards of total offense. Catholic will play their fourth straight Top 20 opponent, East Ascension, next week as they continue to bolster their case for the top spot.

Speaking of the top spot, John Curtis continues to roll with a 61-14 victory over Lake Placid (FL). John Curtis' stacked Class 5A District 9 heats up with district play next week, with the Rummel Raiders taking on Brother Martin.

West Monroe and Rummel both stay undefeated with wins over Neville and Archbishop Shaw, respectively. In addition to star WR and LSU commit Koy Moore, Rummel's defense continues to impress, giving up only 6 points on the season.

VYPE Louisiana's Top 20 Rankings

By Grant Smith and Ethan MaCloud

After a wild week six, Westgate High School has arrived in the Top 20. They edged out St. Thomas More in a thriller, 24-21, behind the performance of star WR Kayshon Boutte. With their second straight loss, St. Thomas More continues to slide down our rankings.

After also losing last week, Destrehan, East Ascension, and St. Augustine fall out of the Top 20. St. Augustine has a tough road ahead thanks to the controversial firing of their head coach and daunting district schedule.

The top seven teams remain unbeaten along with Dutchtown, 2A Notre Dame and 2A Isidore Newman. Leading Newman to their 6-0 start has been a freshman quarterback with a familiar last name. Arch Manning, son of Cooper and grandson of Archie, continues to have an outstanding season drawing comparisons to his uncles.

Another New Orleans area undefeated team, Rummel, has still not given up a touchdown on the season. However, they will face a strong Holy Cross team on Friday.
