Weiss earned a nice win over San Marcos to remain at #6 – and then the butter started churning. Anderson, Rouse and Vista Ridge all improved to 2-0 to move up. (The Raiders’ overtime win over then-Top 10 Liberty in out VYPE Austin Game of the Week was particularly impressive.)
Further down, district rivals Stony Pont and McNeil climbed the ladder and picked up momentum heading into this week’s start of what promises to be a wild 25-6A race. And new to this week’s charts are Hays at #18 and Hendrickson at #20.
Non-district play remains the apples-to-oranges portion of the season, although another week’s worth of data points helps bring things into focus. We’ll get increasing clarity with District 25-6A and District 12-5A-1 opening district play next week and the rest to follow later in the month.
In the meantime, here’s this week’s Power Rankings, heading into Week 3.
