Team of the Week: Lehman Catholic gets my vote this week simply for having no fear and playing the toughest small-school schedule. They almost knocked off #1 Jackson Center this weekend, losing 17-15 in the fifth. They are at 4-4, with a big win over #4 NSP. Their losses, though, have been to LCC, Marion Local, Jackson Center, and Versailles.
Team on the Rise: New Riegel jumps into the rankings at #10 after rolling out to an undefeated start.
Team on the Decline: Kidron Central Christian is traditionally strong and consistent, but at 4-3 so far they are anything but.

No doubt about it, big props to Lehman. No fear at all! The regular season record doesn't matter as much as the post season record does, and they'll be ready! By the way, this is not coming from a Lehman fan either. Other teams beware!
