Only one team lost its first-place status in the latest state football regional playoff standings -- undefeated Fallston. The Cougars dropped to third place in Class 3A East behind Wicomico and Kent Island, who are also undefeated and now tied for first place -- thanks to picking up more bonus points than Fallston for last week's wins.
After seven weeks, eight teams hold on to their top spots in the battle for one of four playoff berths in each region.
Here are the other teams that held on to their top spots:
Poly in Class 4A North
Old Mill in Class 4A East
North Harford in Class 3A North
Atholton in Class 3A East
Edmondson in Class 2A North
Glenelg in Class 2A South
Overlea in Class 1A North
Dunbar in Class 1A South
Of the state's 185 public schools teams, 15 remain undefeated, including Old Mill, Poly, Catonsville, Fallston and Overlea.
