Well, here we are, WEEK ELEVEN..

Hard to believe ain't it?

Penguin's Top 10 AFTER Week 10:

1-Northwestern
2-Goose Creek
3-So Flo
4-Spring Valley
5-Burnz
6-South Pointe
7-Stratford
8-Hillcrest
9-North Augusta
10-Dutch Fork

OK, I made a few changes this week. Primarily because of So Flo's victory over Stratford. I moved the Bruins up 2 spots, ahead of Spring Valley. That win over Stratford was impressive and made a believer out of me.As far as the one loss teams go, Burnz seems to be in a zone above the rest. All of the others, toss them into a hat and how they fall out is where they go. I replaced York with South Pointe after that big game last week. I am now more convinced than ever that Dutch Fork is the ONLY Division I team that can challenge Burnz for second place in the state. The NW-GC winner will be number one no matter what. Hillcrest........hmmmm, that other shoe will surely drop here soon.......won't it?

5 Spring Valley

9 Stratford
10 North Augusta

I still have Northwestern at #1 because they beat us in OT at home.

I still have us at #2 because they only beat us in OT at home.

I have Goose Creek at #3, but based on the solid win over Stratford, I moved SF to the #4 postiion.

Honestly, I'm still not sold on Spring Valley due to schedule and the fact that there are very little common opponents to measure by, but they are #5, primarily because they have not lost a game.

South Pointe's win over York has them back at #6, the loss to NW is understandable, the loss to Sparanburg, not so much.

Dutch Fork without their star has still played quite well at times and is still a TOP TEN team.

Hillcrest (yeah, let me see, where did we have them in week zero.... maybe not top four in their Region, but they are Region Champs!)

Stratford, to their credit, no one has compained about the weather, field conditions, etc. Maybe they looked over SF, or {and I'm guessing this is just slightly possible} maybe SF is just better!

North Augusta is hosting the game of the week in Region Five. On the line, for the winner, a Region championship and the chance at a top 4 seed in their respective bracket which would mean a home game for the first two weeks of the playoffs if you win.

Others considered heavily:
Mauldin (What would this team be with any defense?)
Summerville (Seems to be getting better each week, and that bodes well come playoff time)
Gaffney (another team that always plays best when it is bracket time)

Reb74,

Did you get my pm with my list? I was having to use my phone and it was acting really flaky.

Yeah, I got it... phone acting up, that would explain Goose Creek not listed in your poll this week....
