There's no question it's too early for the MPSSAA football points standings to mean a whole lot, but some teams scored valuable non-league wins that should pay off at the end of the season as more bonus points accumulate.
After three weeks, 13 Baltimore area public school teams remain undefeated, but only eight are in first place in their regions. Most of the state's 16 regions have only two or three unbeaten teams left, but the Class 2A East teams did particularly well in their early games, with six teams still sporting a 0 in the L column (Patterson Mill, Fallston and Joppatowne, along with Queen Anne's, Kent County and Wicomico).
Here are the local teams holding top spots:
Poly in Class 4A North
Old Mill in Class 4A East
Milford Mill in Class 3A North
Hammond in Class 3A East
Edmondson in Class 2A North
Glenelg in Class 2A South
Patterson Mill in Class 2A East
Overlea in Class 1A North
In addition to those already mentioned, Arundel, Catonsville and Aberdeen are undefeated, but for now they have been edged out in the points average.
