6. Moorestown (2-1) (7-3) lost to Timber Creek 30-19 – Moorestown is a good team, so you wonder how good Timber Creek is!

10. Williamstown (3-0) (7-3) beat Cherokee 35-24 – perhaps the biggest win in Williamstown history as they declare themselves to be among the best in Group 4.They will jump up very high in the rankings

My top 5 for each public group: I have started a rating points system which will be somewhat explained as to how I use it when I post the overall rankings. Possible wildcards (no more than 2 per Group) have higher ratings points than at least one top 5 from another Group. The one with the highest rating will get the wildcard.
