We recently released our High School on SI Power 25 national high school football rankings.

Now, we break it down by region.

Losses by former No. 3 Iona Prep and No. 4 St. Peter’s Prep led to a shakeup in this week’s rankings. The top teams in New Hampshire (Bedford) and Massachusetts (St. Johns Prep) were the primary beneficiaries, as they continue to climb, while St. Joseph Regional moved up to No. 3 ahead of its showdown with No. 2 Bergen Catholic.

Moving into the rankings this week were a pair of New Jersey teams — Winslow Township at No. 6 and DePaul Catholic, which knocked off St. Peter’s Prep 31-21 to climb to No. 9.

Here’s a look at our Top 10 teams in the Northeast Region (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont).
