High school football 2013 Top 25 composite rankings

Some new blood has moved into the MaxPreps Composite Rankings this week, with St. Joseph Regional, Colerain and Oscar Smith entering the Top 25.

In order to be considered for these rankings, a team must be ranked in two national polls. If it does not land in all four, the team will be given a 40 to weigh into its average.
