There is a new king of the hill in the latest Trib Ten power rankings.
The big 6A head-to-head battle between Trib Ten teams went to Central Catholic as the Vikings powered their way past the top team all season, Pine-Richland.
The tumble was a long one for the Rams as they went from No. 1 to No. 9 with that Week 5 loss.
Part of the long drop was because all of the other nine power ranked teams were victorious last weekend.
Another head-to-head battle in the Trib Ten comes up in Week 6 as No. 8 Central Valley hosts No. 2 Thomas Jefferson in a nonconference battle royal between the top team in Class 4A and one of the top teams in 3A.
Here are the rankings heading into Week 6. These rankings have no classification boundaries.
