There wasn't a ton of movement in the power rankings this week, but there was certainly enough to keep things interesting. That, a surprise win for Rockledge over Cocoa, and more in this week's report.
Have a Day
Winter Park got a 35 - 21 victory over Lake Mary last week, and a key reason for the victory was senior Cameron LeGree. LeGree tossed the ball for 207 yards and three TDs. That performance landed LeGree among the top power-ranked players for the week.
Points Galore
91. That was the combined point total for Spruce Creek and New Smyrna Beach when they went head to head last week, and it set the benchmark for all power ranking teams. Everything went Spruce Creek's way against New Smyrna Beach as it secured a 64 - 27 win. Nevertheless, Spruce Creek did not have enough punch to impress the power rankings algorithm and slipped one spot in the rankings.
Rocket Boost
Merritt Island will have a better view of things this week after its strong showing last week propelled it seven spots up the power rankings. That was the biggest rise of the week. It narrowly escaped with a win as it sidled past Sebring 9 - 6. The outcome was a definite jolt of excitement for Merritt Island after its previous game, where the margin was anything but close.
Upcoming Drama
The big showdown in the power rankings this week is between Winter Park (4th in the power rankings) and Spruce Creek (14th). Both teams are coming in hot off of wins in their previous games. Given their high-scoring efforts against their previous opponents, we'll see how far they can run the score up this week.
