Thank you for this information. It appears the private schools have recruited well again this year.

Yes, they need to be in their own division IMO. I've seen injuries from teams totally outgunned by teams like McDevitt because the teams that they are playing are fielding entirely with kids that wouldn't make McDevitt's 2 deep. It has become a safety issue. If I were those other schools, I would refuse to play the privates that are recruiting.

Ohio is the same way. The top five are Cincy Moeller, Archbiship Hoban, Anderson (non religious privite college prep school), CLE St. Joes and St. Xavier are the top five.

In fact, if you look at national rankings, you will find these teams

Mater Dei
St John Bosco
Bishop Gorman
Bergen Catholic
St. Joes prep
St. Francis Academy
St. Thomas Aquiness

in the top ten.
