Summary of Midwest Top Ten, Week Ending Oct. 27, 2007

By Jeff Hollobaugh, Dyestat MW Regional Editor

The first of the Midwest state finals, in Indiana, didn't produce many shocks on the team side. Perhaps the biggest was the fourth-place finish of Carmel, behind unranked Fort Wayne Carroll in third. The biggest upsets, however, came in the Illinois sectionals. Naperville North (#7) defeated York (#4), while #6 Wheaton North managed only fifth in the same sectional. On the girls side, #3 Hinsdale Central finished third in the Schaumberg sectional, behind two unranked teams. In Ohio, a very close regional race saw #6 Magnificat barely edge #10 Jackson, with unranked St. Joseph and #9 Hoover just behind.
