JOURNAL SPORTS
There’s very little change in the Week 5 Shreveport Bossier Journal Top 10 from last week’s edition. Mainly because there’s not much reason to change.
The top six teams all won, either convincingly or against strong opponents. The next two (No. 7 Northwood and No. 8 Evangel) both lost, but were against opponents who were favored against them. In fact, the three losses for the 1-3 Eagles are all against teams that are still unbeaten. (Talk about a strong schedule.)
Loyola held serve at No. 9 after a 50-point win over Southwood, so you’ll have to go all the way to No. 10 to find the only change in this week’s poll. Booker T. Washington makes its way in after opening the District 1-4A season with a resounding win over Bossier.
There’s a battle of the unbeatens this week as No. 1 Parkway takes on No. 3 Byrd in South Bossier on Thursday. But there are other games involving two Top 10 teams — No. 5 Huntington will take on its West Shreveport neighbor No. 8 Evangel and No. 2 Airline will take on No. 6 Captain Shreve at Lee Hedges Stadium.
