Where Are The Cherry Hill High School Football Teams Ranked After Week 2?

CHERRY HILL, NJ — The second set of power points standings have been released for the 2017 New Jersey high school football season. Power points are what is used to determine which teams make the playoffs at the end of the season.

A team earns six points for a win, plus between one and five points, depending on what group the team it defeated is in, and a residual point for each win that team has. A team’s first eight games count toward its final point total, but the lowest point total among these games is dropped, so seven total games count toward the final tally. The top eight teams in each group qualify for the playoffs at the end of the season. Below are the full standings for NJSIAA South Jersey groups 4 and 5, as posted on nj.com:
