OCT. 19, 2014
Mahopac (5-2) – Terrific road win last Friday as the Indians
beat White Plains, while John Jay-EF beat Clarkstown South,
allowing Mahopac to earn the fourth and final playoff berth
from Section One, Class AA, League 1. Indians might not
beat No. 1 New Rochelle, but they’ll give ‘em a tough game.

POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Millbrook (5-2) – Convincing win over Liberty wraps up a 2-1
league season for Millbrook. Now the Blazers have to wait to
see what happens between Sullivan West and Liberty, and
whether Section Nine, Class C goes to a three-way tiebreaker, If
it does, Millbrook should still have an inside edge.

3. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Marlboro (5-2) – Big, big win over John S. Burke Catholic in
a highly anticipated showdown, although not without some
game-ending controversy. Now, one more big game this
weekend – the annual Black and Blue Bowl vs. Highland to
determine the division title and No. 1 seed for the playoffs.

POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Newburgh (5-2) – 72 points two weeks, 68 more in a
victory over Kingston on Friday night. Hope they saved
some for this weekend because the Goldbacks still aren’t
in the playoffs. They need a win over Middletown this
weekend to sew up the No. 2 seed in Section Nine, Class
AA, Division 1.

5. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Lourdes (6-1) – Lourdes was in the driver’s seat for the
Section One, Class B title before giving up two scores in
the final nine minutes in a loss to Ardsley two weeks ago.
Now, after Saturday’s win over Westlake and the
convoluted Section One scoring system, OLL gets Ardsley
again in the first round of the playoffs.

6. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
FDR (5-2) – Can’t put yourself in a 21-0 hole like the
Presidents did Friday in an eventual loss to Middletown.
Fortunately it wasn’t a league game. But this weekend’s
trip to Minisink Valley IS, and FDR needs a victory to
clinch a playoff berth.

7. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Highland (6-1) – This could have been a trap game for the
Huskies coming off their first loss of the season, but
Highland ripped O’Neill. Now they get the chance they’ve
been waiting for all season – at Marlboro on Friday night
for the Section Nine, Class B, Division 1 regular season
title.

8. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Wallkill (6-1) – Seems like this happens every year, doesn’t
it? The Panthers will get their annual showdown with
Cornwall on Friday for the Section Nine, Class A, Division 1
title, and will likely meet again in the postseason. This is
one of the area’s great all-time rivalries and not to be
missed.

9. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
Arlington (6-1) – Still the hottest team in the area with
six consecutive victories. The Admirals earned the No.
2 seed coming out of Section One, Class AA, League 1,
but even though they get a home game to start the
playoffs it’s a tough one – North Rockland.

10. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
POWER RANKINGS
OCT. 19, 2014
John Jay (6-1) – They are healthy, they are rested and they
are firing on all pistons right now. The Patriots still have to
be considered one of the two favorites for getting to the
sectional title game against New Rochelle. First things first
– Greeley is on deck for Jay.
