2013 ASWA Week 6 Poll
Pair of No. 1's face challenge from ranked teams in this week's ASWA football poll
By PAUL BEAUDRY
Two
top-ranked teams will put their lofty perch on the line this week against
other ranked opponents, as Class 4A Calera and 5A Spanish Fort work to
maintain their positions in this week's Alabama Sports Writers Association's
high school football poll.
Calera, the
Class 4A leader after the first week of the season, will travel to
Centerville for a Region 4 date with seventh-ranked Bibb County - the second
ranked school the Eagles have faced this season.
As for the Toros, a Region 1 loss to ninth-ranked Vigor would
shake up the 5A rankings - especially with No. 2 Jackson hosting No. 8
Saraland in Region 3 play.
The top teams in every class remained the same in this week's
vote of the state's high school sports writers: Class 3A Madison Academy
remained the only unanimous team, while Class 6A Hoover joined Spanish Fort
by grabbing 30 of the 32 votes in their respective classes. Class 2A
Washington County held its lead with 29 first-place votes, while Class 1A
Pickens County and AISA's Edgewood Academy had 28 each. Calera had 24
first-place votes.
In other games involving ranked teams this week, Class 6A No. 5
Smiths Station is at No. 3 Opelika, Class 1A No. 7 McKenzie is at No. 3
Brantley, while in the AISA, No. 5 Tuscaloosa Academy is at No. 7 Bessemer
Academy and No. 6 Marengo Academy hosts No. 4 Pickens Academy.
