McAllen Memorial remains in No. 1 with six of seven first-place votes. The Mustangs are 6-0 and host La Joya Juarez-Lincoln this week.
McAllen Memorial is winning by an average of 35 points per game.
Edinburg Vela is still No. 2, claiming the other first-place vote. The SaberCats are coming off a string of impressive wins against two of District 31-5A’s top teams in Sharyland High and Roma and are undefeated going into this week’s game against fellow undefeated Sharyland Pioneer.
Harlingen High and Los Fresnos stay No. 3 and No. 4 respectively. The Cardinals are on a four-game winning streak and the Falcons are off to their best start ever in program history.
Los Fresnos is allowing just 9.4 points per game.
For the second straight week, Brownsville Veterans Memorial and Weslaco High swapped places in fifth and sixth. The Chargers are now No. 5 and the Panthers are No. 6.
Brownsville Veterans is 5-0, while Weslaco High is 4-2.
Sharyland High remains No. 7 after its 29-27 win over Mission Veterans Memorial last week. The Rattlers have a bye this week before another big game against Roma in Week 8.
Weslaco East moves up two spots to No. 10, and San Benito is still at No. 9. The Greyhounds fell to Los Fresnos 14-7 in a clash of District 32-6A powers last weekend.
After dropping its first game of the season last week against Edinburg Vela, Roma dropped two spots to No. 10.
