They happily flew under the radar this pre-season, but this could be the most dangerous team they've had yet.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826535659261108509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15640485.post-78634038791644637992009-09-21T15:03:12.826-05:002009-09-21T15:03:12.826-05:00Elder wins and drops 10 slots?

They played and defeated an undefeated league rival (LaSalle) in the always tough GCL-South and Elder drops 10 slots from #5 to #15...<br /><br />St. Xavier beats Louisville Trinity and moves up from 19th to 13th? Elder beat Trinity bad the week before.<br /><br />St. Ignatius moves from #15 to #5 by running up the score against average Mentor team which has a 2-2record with its wins coming against a 2-2 team and an 0-4 team.<br /><br />I appreciate the fact that you're putting this rankings together but you lost a little bit of credibility here. It looks like you get a little too impressed by teams who run up scores...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
