JOURNAL SPORTS

The Evangel Christian Academy Eagles have landed in this week’s Louisiana Sports Writers Association Top 10 Poll for Class 5A.

Evangel (4-1) flew into the No. 10 slot after its fourth straight win, a 62-14 rout of District 1-5A foe Huntington. The Eagles’ only loss came in Week 1 at Neville, 33-32.

ECA faces one of the other undefeated 1-5A teams, Captain Shreve (4-1 overall), Friday night at Rodney Duron Stadium. This is the first time in seven seasons that the Eagles have been in the LSWA’s Top 10.

Unbeaten Parkway (5-0, 3-0) is the only other 1-5A squad getting any voting support. The Panthers host two-time defending district champion Airline (3-2, 1-2) Thursday night.

In Class 2A, Calvary Baptist maintained its No. 4 state ranking in the wake of its 62-8 sinking of Magnolia School of Excellence, the 67th consecutive District 1-2A triumph for the Cavaliers. They go to Homer Friday night.

Unbeaten Loyola picked up voting support in the Class 4A poll, as did 4-1 Northwood.
