In this week's power rankings, we saw one team go soaring up and another team come crashing down, along with everything in between. Part of the action? A towering 107-point combined score for Washington and Sun Valley.
Can't Touch This
Even though Mentor was bested by Solon 29 - 28 last week, Mentor's junior Brian Trobel played one heck of a game. He ran for 209 yards and also punched in two touchdowns. In fact, our algorithms singled out Trobel as one of the top players in the power rankings for the week.
No Stoppin 'Em

Washington's margin of victory (95 points) marked the biggest win the team has had all season. At 107 total points, this was the highest scoring power ranking game of the week.
This Week's Big Showdown
One of the hottest tickets last week involved the clash between Hilliard Davidson (8th in the power rankings) and Dublin Coffman (18th). Hilliard Davidson enjoyed a cozy 24 - 7 win over Dublin Coffman. The victory boosted Hilliard Davidson a satisfying seven spots in the power rankings.
Game of Inches
Though not as conclusive as the rankings might have led one to believe, Marion Local's matchup last week went as planned. The game was as close as could be, but it ended up on top with a 7 - 6 over Minster. The outcome was a definite jolt of excitement for Marion Local after its previous game, where the margin was anything but close. The one-point margin earned this game the title of 'most exciting' for the week.
