Though the top three of the Nike/US Lacrosse High School Girls’ National Top 25 remains unchanged, the rest of the rankings underwent a major shakeup.

The biggest beneficiaries were Agnes Irwin (Pa.), which vaulted nine spots to No. 8 with significant wins at Vero Beach (Fla.) and Good Counsel (Md.), and Loyola Academy (Ill.), which toppled Georgetown Visitation (D.C.) and nearly knocked off host St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes (Va.) at the 26th-annual Spring Fling.
