A big win by New Canaan (Conn.) over Darien (Conn.) changed things near the top of the latest Nike/USA Lacrosse High School Girls’ National Top 25, while three new teams entered the rankings at the bottom. Victor (N.Y.) jumps to the No. 2 spot, while New Canaan and Darien now sit fourth and fifth, respectively.
Westhampton Beach (N.Y.) took an overtime win over formerly ranked Comsewogue (N.Y.) to find a foothold in the rankings. Massapequa (N.Y.) repeated as Nassau Class A champions to also slide up. And with Comsewogue and another former top 25, Severna Park (Md.), losing tight games, Episcopal (Pa.) climbed into the rankings despite not playing in its state tournament due to scheduling conflicts. The Churchwomen beat eventual state tournament champions Penn Charter (Pa.) twice in the regular season, also topped traditional power St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes (Va.), and avenged one of their only losses by 12 goals in a rematch.
There was quite a game of musical chairs atop the Northeast this week with New Canaan’s 10-8 win over Darien in the FCIAC title game causing commotion. Victor, New Canaan and Darien
could all make a case for their spot atop the rankings.
The Mid-Atlantic Region remained much the same with Summit (N.J.) moving into the rankings as it continues to roll through state tournament play. Marriotts Ridge (Md.) avenged an earlier loss and repeated as state champions to knock out Severna Park (Md.). Only Pennsylvania and New Jersey remain in action among ranked teams in the region. The South Region’s play is concluded.
The Midwest saw some of the most prolific action of any region though none of the top 10 teams changed rankings. New Trier (Ill.) asserted itself as the top team in its state with a win over perennially dominant Loyola Academy (Ill.). There is opportunity to move as teams remain alive in state tournament brackets.
Redwood (Calif.) joined the top 10 in the West Region after capturing their first section championship. Colorado Academy (Colo.) asserted its spot atop the state with Valor Christian (Colo.) and Fairview (Colo.) playing well in losses. Lake Oswego (Ore.) will try to do the same in Oregon with a pair of games to go.

6. Fairview (Colo.), 15-3

Fairview’s only other loss was against Colorado Academy (Colo.) in the season opener. Previous: 7
7. Santa Margarita (Calif.), 17-3
