After impressive road victories, Calvert Hall College and Old Mill have earned a spot in the latest High School on SI Baltimore metro football Top 10 rankings.

Old Mill put together a rousing second half to dominate 2024 Maryland Class 3A state champ and then-No. 6 Arundel (42-9) to debut at No. 6. Nationally-ranked Saint Frances Academy remains No. 1 in the Baltimore Top 10, followed by Spalding, McDonogh School, Milford Mill Academy and Loyola Blakefield.
