Number one St. Thomas Aquinas just barely held on against a tough Chaminade-Madonna team, pulling out a 21-20 win in an absolutely epic Florida clash. Seriously, the top team in the USA TODAY Sports Super 25 almost went down this weekend, showing that this season is already bringing some serious heat.
The Top Dogs Were Tested
That 21-20 score tells you everything about how tough that St. Thomas Aquinas game was. The top-ranked team was pushed to the absolute limit, holding on for dear life. You love to see that kind of high-stakes football, right? And get this: out west, No. 4 Santa Margarita made their own case for national supremacy in a defensive slugfest. They locked down Mater Dei, winning 14-7 in Southern California. We’re talking about top-tier football here, where every single yard is a fight and every possession matters.
Blowouts and Big Wins Across the Nation
Not every Super 25 team had a nail-biter, though. St. Frances Academy just absolutely steamrolled Legacy School of Sport Sciences with a dominant 46-0 win. And Columbus absolutely crushed Southwest, putting up a ridiculous 53-0 blowout. Talk about making a statement! Meanwhile, some other top teams like Buford, Allen, Bishop Gorman, and Carrollton were all idle this week. Good for them to catch a breather, but the rest of the country is still grinding, keeping pace in that nationwide race for championship glory.
High School Drama Delivers Again
Beyond the Super 25, we saw some wild finishes that prove high school football always delivers. Somers battled Rye and came out on top 31-13 in a solid win. But the real drama? Mitchell spoiled Watertown’s homecoming game, snatching a 23-22 win in double overtime! You literally can’t make this stuff up, it’s why we watch every single week.
The action keeps rolling with No. 2 IMG Academy still having an upcoming game on October 3 against St. James Performance Academy. With these kinds of results from Week 7, you gotta wonder who’s gonna step up and truly challenge for that top spot. This season is only getting crazier as teams keep fighting for championship glory!
