Class 4A

■ 1. Bishop Gorman (2-2. Last week 1). The Gaels got back in the win column against De La Salle (California).

■ 2. Liberty (3-1, LW 2). The Patriots are idle after knocking off Legacy on Saturday.

■ 3. Arbor View (3-0, LW 3). Shadow Ridge is the next test for the Aggies’ double-wing attack.

■ 4. Green Valley (4-0, LW 5). The Gators are set on proving missing the playoffs last year was a fluke.

■ 5. Foothill (3-0, LW 4). The Southeast League is looking mighty formidable this year.

■ 6. Legacy (3-1, LW 6) The Longhorns look to move to 2-0 in Northwest League play when they host Centennial.

■ 7. Shadow Ridge (3-0, LW 8) The Mustangs will open up Nevada’s eyes if they can knock off Arbor View.

■ 8. Faith Lutheran (0-3, LW 7) The Crusaders will get back on track soon, and they hope it’s against Palo Verde.

■ 10. Sierra Vista (2-1, LW 9) The Mountain Lions look to stay in first place in the Southwest League.

Class 3A

■ 1. Desert Pines (1-2, LW 1). After a 48-0 drubbing of a Class 4A team, it’s safe to say the Jaguars are back.

■ 2. Chaparral (3-1, LW 3). The Cowboys lost to a 4A team, but look to beat one in Rancho this weekend.

■ 3. Mojave (3-1, LW 4). It’s fair to wonder if anyone in 3A can stop Tawee Walker.

■ 4. Moapa Valley (2-1, LW 2). The Pirates make the long trek to Boulder City on Saturday.

■ 5. Sunrise Mountain (2-1, LW 5). The Miners, idle last week, head to Mesquite to play an angry Virgin Valley team.

■ 5. The Meadows (1-2, LW unranked). The Meadows beat Laughlin to start 1-0 in league play.

Class 1A

■ 1. Pahranagat Valley (3-0, LW 1). The Panthers start league play after a perfect nonleague slate.

■ 2. Spring Mountain (2-1, LW 2). The Golden Eagles play their second home game of the season in their league opener.
