Grayson (2-0) Loganville, GA
If Manatee wasn't the most impressive team on the weekend, Grayson was. We won't know how good Miami Central actually is until later in the season, but no one expected Grayson to light up the Rockets like this.

Santa Margarita (2-0) Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
As expected, Santa Margarita dispatched Long Beach Jordan with relative ease. The bigger concern appears to be the continuing loss of players to Pac-5 foe Mission Viejo as UCLA commitment Erik Bunte looks to be transferring to the Diablos this week as well,
marking the third Eagle to leave to Mission Viejo since the end of last season.

Vista Murrieta (1-0) Murrieta, CA

Bolingbrook (2-0) Bolingbrook, IL
I mentioned last week that I hoped they use a running clock in the second half
in Illinois. After a 34-3 lead at halftime, Bolingbrook eased up and cruised

Maine South (2-0) Park Ridge, IL
Wheaton-Warrenville South looked like the toughest test on the Maine South
