All-Encompassing SGV(N) Top 25 after Week 2 …


They’re talking about LA again … but this time it’s about winning.

1. Charter Oak (3-0) — Another big test looms for Chargers in Rancho, but offense looks ready.
2. Bishop Amat (2-1) — Back on track … Jalen Moore especially.
3. La Habra (2-1) — I spoke to Servite coach Troy Thomas on Sunday and he said he would rank La Habra above Amat, but it’s close.
4. St. Francis (2-0) — Arcadia win flatters Knights in a big way.
5. West Covina (2-1) — Jimmy Frazier on his way to All-Area honors.
6. Arcadia (2-1) — Apaches will be even scarier once they correct turnover problems.
7. St. Paul (2-0) — Routed Norwalk, but you knew that (before the game was even played).
8. Chino Hills (1-2) — Went deep into Orange County to learn the offense needs work.
9. Monrovia (1-1) — Here’s my take: De’Shawn Ramirez didn’t touch it enough vs. Arcadia
10. Damien (2-0) — Sparty hoping things are different this time vs. Amat
11. Covina (2-1) — We’re all just waiting for the Colts’ next legit test. And it may be a while.
12. La Serna (3-0) — Edged Bonita for some nice-tasting revenge.
13. Maranatha (3-0) — Who’s ready to lump Minutemen in with Monrovia and Covina?
14. Muir (2-1) — Couldn’t hang with Rancho, now ‘Stangs can’t let the loss linger.
15. Claremont (3-0) — Not sure about strength of schedule, but Pack still rolling.
16. Arroyo (3-0) — Needed Rivera heroics to edge up-and-coming Montebello
17. San Dimas (2-1) — Written off after Week 0, Saints are rolling again.
18. Alhambra (3-0) — Moors handle TC and now the momentum is really building.
19. Los Altos (3-0) — This ranking is dedicated to all those who transferred out. Tell us, is the grass really greener?
20. Diamond Bar (2-1) — Brahmas are on a short leash going to big Brea game.
21. Santa Fe (1-2) — Losses are to teams way above Chiefs’ level.
22. Bonita (1-2) — Two closes losses vs. unbeaten teams. Don’t forget about Bearcats yet.
23. Montebello (2-1) — Almost beat Arroyo, but got Rivera’d.
24. Glendora (1-2) — Losses are to CO and Monrovia. Broke through vs. Colony.
25. South Hills (1-2) — Defense was the concern all offseason and you can see why.
