South Group 5

★NJSIAA head-to-head rule. After the power rank, a team that beat the team directly above it moves ahead of it. The line under the team names the game.

iToday vs. Friday. “If it ended today” counts the games played so far. Every game counts in a team’s average, so even a win over a weak team can lower it. The odds play out every game left.
