Top Ten and Rankings Explanation-Week Four.

Written Saturday September 20th at 9:10 AM

This week the rankings came out early with Avondale and Pontiac playing on Saturday, the game didn't have an impact on the rankings so here they are this week.

1. Harper Woods: Dakota Guerrant basically saved the Pioneers league title hopes with three touchdowns in a classic 28-27 win over Stoney Creek Friday night.

2. Clarkston: Great week for the Wolves, getting some of their backups some key playing time.

3. West Bloomfield: Lakers senior experience really helping them here.

4. Adams: Welcome back Ryland Watters.

5. Stoney Creek: Cougars will be fine after this tough 28-27 loss to Harper Woods.

6. Seaholm: Patrick Hughes enough said.

7. Farmington: The 20-18 loss to Holly is officially forgotten for the Falcons.

8. Ferndale: Coach Donovan Jackson has the Eagles clicking right now.

9. North Farmington: Raiders exploded for 49 points against Bloomfield Hills on Friday night.

10. Groves: Falcons came out strong and had an impressive 35-7 win over Rochester. This win should help Groves moving forward. 

 

Rankings Explanation:

Well we're at week four in the season and I'll explain the rankings this week.

I thought about moving Harper Woods down in the rankings after their surviving 28-27 win over Stoney Creek but the Pioneers beat Clarkston at Clarkston which is why the Pioneers are staying at one and the Wolves stay at two.

West Bloomfield stays at three after their impressive 33-16 win at Lake Orion. The Lakers have Clarkston in the Swamp looming. It should be a very interesting game. Adams moves up to four after an impressive second half against Oxford with a lot of it being Ryland Watters coming back.

I thought of keeping Stoney Creek at four but with Adams win over Oxford, I moved them down one spot but the Cougars have a chance to play the Highlanders so this could change in the future.

Seaholm stays at six after a big 24-21 win over Oak Park.

Farmington enters the rankings at seven after a 38-14 win over Troy Athens on Friday night.

Ferndale enters the rankings at eight after a strong fourth quarter at Hurley Field with a 26-14 win on Friday night.

North Farmington returns to the rankings at nine after putting up 49 points against Bloomfield Hills on Friday night.

Groves enters the rankings at 10 after an impressive 35-7 win over Rochester on Friday night.

I dropped Rochester, Oxford, and Oak Park from the rankings after two of the three teams took blowout losses while the other had a rough loss to Seaholm.

It will be very interesting to see what happens next week.
