In Class AAAAAA, undefeated Lambert (6-0) occupies No. 1 for the third straight week and Pope remains No. 2 after a 2-0 start. North Gwinnett made a significant jump after toppling No. 3 Lassiter 10-3. The win vaulted North Gwinnett to No. 3 and dropped Lassiter to No. 6. Mill Creek comes in at No. 7 ahead of No. 8 Walton, which the Hawks edged 10-9 in the season opener. This is Walton’s first week in the poll and the Raiders are off to an impressive 4-2 start after a 2-5 start in last year’s early gauntlet. Johns Creek was edged out of the poll due to a 14-2 loss to Lassiter in February that became worse after North Gwinnett handled the Trojans in last week’s 10-3 victory. No. 10 Alpharetta beat No. 9 and defending champion Roswell 7-6 but sits behind the Hornets in the poll due to a three-game losing streak that was finally snapped Tuesday with a 7-6 win over Harrison.

In Class A-AAAAA, Blessed Trinity defeated Cambridge 7-6 on Tuesday and jumped to No. 8, while Cambridge slid down to No. 10.

In the girls Class AAAAAA poll, No. 1 Milton and No. 2 Walton clash Thursday night at Milton in a must-see finals rematch. No. 3 Lassiter survived a 16-15 overtime marathon with No. 4 Chattahoochee on Tuesday and the remaining ranked teams all posted victories this week to maintain the current status quo.

In Class A-AAAAA girls, Westminster’s 5-0 start and 100-3 goals advantage this season keeps the Wildcats safe at No. 1. Previously-ranked No. 2 Kell, dropped to No. 3 in this week’s poll after an 11-10 loss at Blessed Trinity, which took over No. 2 in this week’s poll. Cambridge dropped one spot to No. 4 after a 9-8 loss to North Gwinnett, but mostly because of Blessed Trinity’s rise to No. 2 from its previous home at No. 4.
