Northwood rises in Week 8’s Top 10

JOURNAL STAFF

There’s not a whole lot of movement in the Shreveport-Bossier Journal Top 10 poll for Week 8.

The top four teams remained the same and the only team to make a significant move is the Northwood Falcons, going from No. 7 to No. 5. The Falcons are 6-1 overall and have won three straight by a combined 134-42. They will take on 0-6 Southwood this week.

The Falcons made a jump over Huntington and Captain Shreve, both of whom suffered a loss in Week 7.

Evangel (No. 8) and Loyola (No. 9) both had wins and held their spots.

There are three matchups this week between Top 10 teams — No. 2 Parkway will play No. 7 Captain Shreve at Lee Hedges Stadium, No. 4 Calvary will meet sixth-rated Huntington at Independence Stadium and No. 9 Loyola will play host to No. 10 Booker T. Washington. All games are Friday night.
