There's no change at the top of this week's MaxPreps.com's Xcellent 25 after a weekend of national showdowns.
Florida powers #2 Armwood and #4 St. Thomas Aquinas hung-on to last week's position after going out of state to prove they deserve their lofty national rankings. The top six teams held their positions.
Armwood traveled 2,500 miles to beat former #9 Bishop Gorman (Nevada) 20-17. The Hawks needed a blocked field goal at the end of the game to preserve the victory. After the close loss, Bishop Gorman fell one spot to #10.
Like Armwood, St. Thomas Aquinas was also only a field goal better than former #6 Prattville (Alabama). The 34-31 win keeps the Raiders at #4, while Prattville drops to #12.
The biggest mover from last week was Kentucky's Trinity that moves 12 spots to #7.
New additions to this week's poll: Mallard Creek (North Carolina) at #18, Columbus Miami (Florida) at #23 and DeSoto (Texas) at #25.
Dropping-out from last week: South Panola (Mississippi), Dwyer (Florida) and Aledo (Texas)
