Two losses for South Forsyth dropped them out of the No. 1 spot which made is possible for previous No. 2, Peachtree Ridge, to take over the top spot in the state’s largest classification.  Peachtree Ridge is fresh off 2-1 wins over Mill Creek and Duluth. South Forsyth fell to No. 3 as Collins Hill moved up to second. Lassiter fell one spot to No. 4. Previously ranked seventh, Archer fell out of the rankings. Parkview moved from tenth to seventh and Brookwood jumped up one spot to eighth. Un-ranked Grayson moved into the No. 10 spot.

Pope leads the way in the 6A class after wins over Wheeler and North Atlanta last week. Harrison, Chattahoochee and Johns Creek are No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4 and a new No. 5, Northgate, fills out the top-5. Dacula fell from fifth to sixth. Effingham County jumped from tenth to seventh and remains perfect, 10-0-0. Creekview fell from ninth to un-ranked and was replaced by Alpharetta. Cambridge dropped to tenth from seventh after a loss.

Following losses to Northgate, Marist and Whitewater, McIntosh fell from the top-spot to fourth in the 5A classification. Whitewater, at 10-0-1, is the new No. 1 after wins over McIntosh and Heritage-Conyers last week. Starr’s Mill moved up to fifth behind cross town rival, No. 4 McIntosh. Veterans, with an 11-1-0 record, is in the third spot and does not look to be going anywhere anytime soon. Previous No. 5 Harris County fell to sixth to make room for Starr’s Mill and Warner Robins fell to ninth.

Class 4A is led again by St. Pius X with a 11-0-1 record. Marist (No. 2) and Blessed Trinity (No. 3) stay in the same spots.

Bremen jumped from tenth to eighth and Adairsville fell to tenth.

St. Vincent’s is still the team to beat in the 2A class after an 8-0 win over Bryan County last week. Sporting a perfect 9-0-0 record, St. Vincent’s has not given up a goal since the 6-3 win over Richmond Hill on March 6. Fitzgerald moved into third after Vidalia fell to sixth. Lamar County moved up to fourth. Screven County, No. 5, moved from seventh to round out the top-5. Model moved to seventh, Harlem fell from sixth to ninth and Rockmart is in the ninth spot.
