Click here for the Previous Power Rankings. And just a quick note, if you click on a school in the power rankings list it will take you to the respective school's team page.
The Power Rankings are a weekly strength assessment of each team and generally speaking the rankings are used for the basis of predictions for the coming week as upsets rarely seem to happen.
1. Belmont Hill School (Previously: 1)
Belmont Hill pulled out a tough 8-7 victory over Nobles to essentially claim the ISL title and possibly a number 2 seed in the Class B Tournament.
Although Nobles lost to Belmont Hill, they slide up one spot in the rankings because it was a much more competitive match than the Milton-Belmont Hill one. Nobles had a convincing win over St. Paul's on Saturday 10-5.
3. Milton Academy (2)
After Milton's wins over Andover and Exeter, it looks like they might have a good enough resume to pick up the second seed in the Class A Tournament. On the other hand, it's been a tough week publicity week for Milton after the Controversial Quotes Post.
4. Roxbury Latin School (4)
Other than New England's, Roxbury Latin only has easy matches remaining on its schedule.
5. St. Paul's School (5)
St. Paul's had a big win over Rivers on Friday by a score of 9-6. The loss to Nobles won't matter on Selection Day when the Class B Tournament is determined because St. Paul's will be safely in.
6. Rivers School (7)
Rivers is on pace to have its best record in the past half-decade.
7. St. George's School (8)
St. George's has a big match versus BB&N this Wednesday.
8. St. Mark's School (10)
St. Mark's beat Thayer this past week and they have a showdown with St. Seb's on Wednesday.Middlesex has a tough stretch coming up with matches against RL and Belmont Hill; they picked up a big win versus BB&N on Saturday.
10. Thayer Academy (12)
Thayer has the potential to pick up another win versus maybe Collins-less Governor's on Wednesday.
11. Brooks School (13)
Brooks has winnable matches this week against Middlesex, Thayer, and St. Seb's.
12. Groton School (14)
Groton beat BB&N on Wednesday but they have a tough schedule down the stretch.
14. BB&N (7)
15. Governor's Academy (9)
16. Lawrence Academy (16)
Lawrence has won 2 sets in 11 matches this season for an average of .18 Sets Per Match. I think I just created a new statistic right there, that could be my legacy. I'm trying to write the most out of a "bad situation" because I haven't done much coverage of this team all year besides saying that if Lawrence had beaten Belmont Hill it would've been the biggest upset in ISL Sports History.
