NUC Top 25 High School Teams - Week 10

WEEK 10

NUC High School Rankings

Week 10

It was status quo in the NUC High School Top25 this week. Every team in the current poll that played this past week continued their dominance over their opponents. But some of these teams will be tested this coming week.

In the Sunshine State the #2 Manatee (FL) Hurricanes (7-0) will be taking on Palmetto, FL (7-0). The biggest matchup of the season in the Tar Heel State will pit the #8 Butler (NC) Bulldogs (9-0) versus Independence, NC (8-1). The big question mark is whether signal caller Riley Ferguson will be back in action. In Ohio the #14 ranked St. Ignatius (OH) Wildcats (9-0) host rival St. Edward, OH (9-0). The winner here will most likely be a favorite to go all the way to the Class I State Championship game.

The NUC High School Player of the Week is Lassiter, GA quarterback Eddie Printz. Printz threw for 420 yards and four second half touchdowns in huge 47 to 30 win over Milton, GA. The Trojans are ranked #2 in AAAAAA behind the Camden County (GA) Wildcats.
