All ranked programs pocketed victories last week, but Berwick, thanks to its 41-7 triumph over Crestwood, earned a small bump from the 10th position. Celebrated QB CJ Curry notched 337 yards and four TDs in that one. Selinsgrove falls to No. 10 after its tougher-than-expected 21-6 win over Mifflinburg. District 3 rep Cocalico and WPIAL heavyweight Franklin Regional enter our teams to watch list.
