2023 Pennsylvania High School Football PFN Rankings Week 3
Tagged under: News, Rankings
Billy Splain | September 12, 2023
Movement everywhere! As we dig into the season, it’s ineveitable that ranked teams play each other. This past week saw several matchups of ranked teams. Manheim Twp made a huge noise, Penn Hills scored some points with our rankings staff.
Then you have the unusual. Selinsgrove and Jersey Shore collided and the game ended in a tie when a player was badly injured. We hope he will recover (as well as any other players injured this season. We do no like these situations at all). Then you have the Barons getting waxed by an unranked team.
The Tigers knocked Loyalsock off the top of the ladder, Steel Valley dropped as did a host of 2A honorable mentions. 1A saw the most changes with state runner-up Union getting blasted.
Enough talk, here they are!
