CHESTER, ARCH. CARROLL AMONG PENNSYLVANIA'S FINEST IN LATEST POLLS

Well, nothing out of the ordinary here.

When the Harrisburg Patriot-News unveiled its top-10 polls for this week, seeing Chester atop the PIAA Class AAAA rankings really is no surprise. The Clippers, who last week ranked No. 10 nationally by ESPN, are expected to climb some more after another blemish-free week.

Archbishop Carroll's spot at No. 7 in the PIAA Class AAA poll, however, is kind of a surprise. The Patriots have struggled to a 5-4 record, rebounding some to earn a 2-0 start to the Catholic League season after getting swept in a holiday-tournament showing in Boston, Mass.
