Video: St. Edward highlights Watch the Eagles defeat St. Ignatius last week.
Holding the top spot in the MaxPreps Top 25 rankings has been difficult, but St. Edward secured its No. 1 position on Friday with a convincing 70-58 win over St. Ignatius.
The Eagles methodically pulled away from St. Ignatius while rolling to their 17th win in 18 games. They are the first team to repeat as No. 1 in the rankings in four weeks.
Archbishop Moeller switched places with St. Vincent-St. Mary to No. 2 with two wins, while SVSM went 2-1, dropping a 76-73 overtime game to seventh-ranked Lutheran East.
Sixth-ranked University (Morgantown, WV) is included in the Ohio
rankings by the MaxPreps computer because it is a member of the Ohio
Valley Athletic Conference.
The top 10 teams stayed intact, but a few were re-positioned, including McKinley rising a spot to No. 8.
Below is a full look at the Top 25. The rankings are updated every Tuesday and Friday.
