The media companies offer two N.C. rankings: one for the top 25 overall teams, regardless of classification, and a second one that ranks the top teams in 10 different classifications.
And joining the N.C. Super 25 this week are two Mecklenburg County teams that have been ranked previously this season: Myers Park (3-2) and Mallard Creek (4-2).
Myers Park is back in after winning its third straight game, beating Charlotte Country Day, 32-29, on Friday. The Mustangs lost to No. 2 Providence Day and No. 4 Weddington to start the season, but have gotten going since.

Mallard Creek lost to nationally-ranked Buford (GA) and was upset by Myers Park in back-to-back weeks, but the Mavericks have won their last two games — 38-0 over a top 5-ranked team in Tennessee (McCallie) and a 43-6 win over 2025 N.C. 8A state semifinalist West Charlotte last week.
In the class rankings, there are four new teams: Apex Friendship (8A), R-S Central (4A), East Bladen (2A) and Father Capodano (NCISAA 8-Man).
