Columbus Grove (6-0) and Marion Local (6-0) remained in the top two spots this week in the fourth weekly Division VII state poll, voted upon by Associated Press members throughout Ohio.
Minster (5-1) dropped to fourth and New Bremen (4-2) fell to eighth in D-VII.
Bluffton (6-0) moved up to No. 4 in D-VI after a win against LCC (4-2) on Friday, which dropped the T-Birds out of the Top 10.
Wapakoneta (6-0) stayed at No.6 in D-III and Coldwater (6-0) claimed the top spot in D-VI.
Other area teams receiving votes included Lima Senior (D-II, 22), LCC (D-VII, 7), St. Henry (D-VII, 4), Versailles, (D-V, 26), Anna (D-VI, 15), Pandora-Gilboa (D-VII, 3), Upper Scioto Valley (D-VII, 1) and Ada (D-VII, 1).
