6. (6) Riverdale (Murfreesboro, Tenn.) 10-0
What are the odds of two schools with the name "Riverdale" being next to each other at five and six in the national rankings? More important, what are the odds of this Riverdale beating Science Hill Saturday?

7. (7) Long Beach Poly (Calif.) 6-0
The Jackrabbits haven't played in 10 days so, like O'Dowd, they'll be ready to go when the Nike TOC begins.

8. (8) Duncanville (Texas) 17-0
The Pantherettes had no problem with Mansfield Timberview, a team some thought would be one of the best in Texas. Cedar Hill and star Jada Terry are next.

9. (9) Mater Dei (Santa Ana, Calif.) 9-0
The Monarchs tuned up for the Nike TOC with a 77-34 win over St. Joseph. Ossining (N.Y.) and Saniya Chong will be a tougher test Thursday.

10. (10) Dreher (Columbia, S.C.) 8-0
Dreher's waiting for the Naples Holiday Classic, which has three members of the top ten in its 16-team top bracket.
