With No. 1 Landon's season finished, the focus shifted to the Northeast, where the New York state playoffs continued last week. Jamesville-DeWitt (N.Y.) just keeps winning, extending its streak to 17 games with wins over Johnson City (N.Y.) in the Class C play-in game and Canton (N.Y.) in the state quarterfinals. As a result, it moved from No. 12 to No. 8 this week's Nike/US Lacrosse High School Boys' Top 25.

Conversely, La Salle (Pa.) saw its season end with an upset to Central Bucks East (Pa.) in a PIAA quarterfinal matchup. That lost bumped La Salle out of the top 10.
