For the second week in a row, we have a new No. 1 in the central Ohio high school football Top 10 poll.
With a 31-0 win over Gahanna Lincoln in Week 3, coupled with Groveport’s 24-13 loss to Big Walnut, Olentangy Liberty has ascended to No. 1. Groveport has dropped to No. 8.
Liberty also is the top central Ohio team in this week’s USA Today Network Ohio Super 25 rankings.
The central Ohio Top 10 ranks teams regardless of division. Each voter submits a Top 10 with a first-place vote worth 10 points, a second-place vote worth nine and so on down to one point for 10th.
