MaxPreps Top 25 high school football scores: Hun hands No. 15 St. Frances Academy second consecutive loss with 14-9 win

A 28-yard field by Zach Brien boosted No. 2 IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) to a 42-40 win over NFL Academy. The Ascenders led 28-0 before NFL Academy roared back to take a fourth quarter lead as Diego Tamez hit Devon Myrie for three touchdowns.

But five-star quarterback Jayden Wade, who threw for a touchdown and ran for another, led the Ascenders into field goal range with four seconds left for the Brien field goal. IMG remains undefeated with the victory and it’s the second time this month the Ascenders have won a game by two points on a Brien field goal.

IMG jumped out to a 28-0 lead as Keith Smith ran for two touchdowns and Elijah Newman-Hall ran for another. Alabama commit Osani Gayles also caught a touchdown.

No. 16 Brownsburg (Ind.) had no issues in its 35-7 win over Hamilton Southeastern (Fishers, Ind.). All of the Bulldogs points were socred in the first half as Oscar Frye hit Branden Sharpe on four touchdown throws. Frye now has 28 touchdowns this season and 16 have gone to Sharpe. 

Prattville (Ala.) remains undefeated after a 28-27 upset over No. 12 Thompson (Alabaster). Quarterback Will McKay threw for two touchdowns, one to Deshawn Hall and rushed for the game-winner. Down 28-21, C.J. Cowley scored a touchdown for Thompson to cut the deficit to 28-27 but the extra-point was no good. Thompson got the ball back and were able to line up a 20-yard field goal attempt with 30 seconds left. Prattville burst through the line and blocked the kick to secure the victory. 

No. 6 Columbus (Miami) topped No. 22 Central (Miami) 28-3 in a game that was called in the third quarter due to multiple lightning delays. Cecil Smith rushed for two touchdowns and Kai Moore threw for a score as Columbus won the Greater Miami Athletic Conference. 

One of this week's biggest games takes place Friday in Southern California as No. 8 St. John Bosco (Bellflower) hosts No. 3 Santa Margarita (Rancho Santa Margarita) at Panish Family Stadium. 

Santa Margarita (7-0) is riding a 13-game win streak and the defense has been lights so far in 2026, allowing just 5.3 points per game. St. John Bosco has won six in a row since a 38-28 season-opening loss at No. 7 Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas, Nev.). The Braves have won 16 in a row against their Trinity League rival, including a 27-14 win last season. 

No. 15 St. Frances Academy (Baltimore, Md.) was the only MaxPreps Top 25 team in action on Saturday and suffered its second straight defeat with a 14-9 loss against Hun (Princeton, N.J.). The Panthers threw two fourth quarter interceptions and failed to recover an onside kick after scoring a touchdown in the final minute to cut it to a one score game. 

No. 9 Allen (Texas) and No. 21 Mater Dei (Santa Ana, Calif.) were the only MaxPreps Top 25 teams that played Thursday. 

Allen topped Rock Hill (Frisco) 70-14 to remain undefeated through seven games. Sophomore Ty Snell threw a pair of touchdowns, one of which went to running back Lyndon Spriggs. The senior also scored a rushing touchdown and on a punt return. Jrue Simmons and Devorion Hambric each added two rushing scores.

The Eagles defense was dominant as Allen built a 56-7 lead at the half as Raiden Johnson and Trey Roberson returned interceptions for touchdowns.

Mater Dei scored 28 unanswered points to pull away and defeat Servite (Anaheim, Calif.) 38-15. Sophomore running back Asir Nembhard scored two rushing touchdowns to move his total up to 10 this season.

The Monarchs were led by a pair of freshman in the aerial attack as Paytyn Guess hits Tristan Brown for a pair of scores through the air. One of the those touchdowns followed an interception from junior defensive back David King III.
