Friday, Oct. 23 · Week 8 · at Mullica Hill, NJ
Clearview wins about 92 times in 100.
What’s on the line
Each team’s biggest open goal, from this week’s run of the season: a playoff spot, then a home playoff game (top 8), then a No. 1 seed (top 2).
Non-public seeds come from a committee. Our formula follows its rule: head-to-head first, then common opponents, then Strength Index. Tonight's winner goes above the loser; the margin still moves both teams' Strength Index against everyone else.
If it ended today: Holy Cross, Outside the field today. The week’s other results can move this too.
