Interestingly enough, Lincoln Southwest has slipped from the catching gaze of fans, falling from number 2 to number 6, alongside Lincoln Southeast, who gained momentum by climbing from the 10th to the 7th position.

As we take a brief look down the line-up, Papillion-La Vista South dipped one spot to number 8, while Omaha Westside and Elkhorn South navigated through minor setbacks, landing in the 9th and 10th places, respectively. In addition, expect to see teams like Kearney and Omaha Central, who are currently receiving votes, itching to break into the top tier next week!
