Pete’s Top-10: Changes at top this week
We’ve hit the midpoint of the season and the poll had some shakeups after week five results.
Nazareth fell flat again with a loss to Parkland and Emmaus let another game slip away at home to Easton to cause some movement this week. Outside of that, Liberty looks to start 6-0 and Northampton hopes their romp over Whitehall last week can build momentum.
