St. Ed's Moves Up In New OHSAA Football Rankings

LAKEWOOD, OH — The St. Edward Eagles are soaring up the latest OHSAA football computer rankings. After sitting at the three spot last week, the team has leapfrogged Canton McKinley and is now ranked number two in the region, behind only rival St. Ignatius.

All three teams at the top of the Division I, Region I rankings are undefeated. However, St. Ed's had previously been jumped by Canton McKinley in the rankings. The Eagles returned the favor this week.

The Eagles went on the road last week, travelling to Chicago to play Naperville Central. St. Ed's pulled out the victory, 34-24, to remain undefeated on the season. (Subscribe to the Patch Lakewood newsletter for local news and updates.)
