New rankings released: Top 25 high school football teams in the Carolinas
Two teams — both from South Carolina — sit atop The Carolinas Top 25 high school football poll this week, including a new No. 1.
Top-ranked Dutch Fork (8-0) hosts No. 7 Irmo (9-0) on Friday in its regular-season finale. Second-ranked Northwestern awaits its playoff opponent for Nov. 15.
The poll, put out by McClatchy media companies in North and South Carolina, ranks the Top 25 teams in both states, regardless of classification. The poll appears weekly throughout the regular season.
