We fielded a question this week ... had the Charlotte Cardinals won the Gonzaga Classic over Gonzaga would we have moved them to #1?
The answer is ... unlikely. It was a tournament and a shortened game. It's tough to ditch a team out of the #1 slot over a shortened game. Had they won might we have moved them to #2? Maybe. But #3 seems right.

Coming off close losses to Rye (12-7) and a 40-24 loss to BC High, Greenwich were not necessarily favored against Xavier.
But they exploded for 45 points and a 45-15 victory.
Greenwich in fact led 45-5 until the final portion of the game.
