| *** Editor's Note: In Week 9, Palatine was ranked 3rd and LaSalle 4th. The NTN rankings committee reevaluated the two teams this week and placed LaSalle 3rd. LaSalle was ranked throughout the year and travelled to face top competition, placing 4th at the Great American ahead of several ranked teams including Pennsylvania 3A champion West Chester East, Kentucky 4A champion St. Xavier, Florida 1A champion Holy Trinity, Virginia 2A champion Brentsville Nokesville, and Georgia 5A champion Parkview. LaSalle finished their season by winning the Ohio Division 1 title with one of the most decisive margins ever in that state. Palatine had no significant wins, had no out of state competition, and was unranked until finishing second to defending NTN champion York Elmhurst in the Illinois state meet by 83 points. |
