There’s a new No. 1 in the latest High School on SI’s DMV (D.C., Maryland and Virginia) girls lacrosse Top 25 rankings, and it's very familiar with the role.

McDonogh School, which has been a preeminent force nationally for two decades, has moved to the top spot after Archbishop Spalding defeated previously No. 1 and defending Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland champion St. Paul’s School. 

Spalding moved to No. 2 followed by St. Paul’s School, Maryvale Prep and Our Lady of Good  Counsel. Glenelg Country School moved four spots from No. 24 to 20th after winning its first two games. The entire Top 25 will be in action this week as public school competition starts in the DMV region.
