R.I. HS Football Poll Week 2

Another week down and the top five teams haven't moved an inch. As far as local teams, Middletown and Portsmouth (who meet on what's shaping up to be a very interesting Thanksgiving Day) switched spots, with the Islanders slipping into the No. 6 after a rout of Exeter-West Greenwich. Tiverton, ranked No. 8 last week, suffered its first loss of the season and dropped out of the Top 20. Just to reiterate, the first number after the team name is total points, the number after the dash is where it was ranked last week. Any number in parenthesis is first-place votes.

1. La Salle(6) 158 - 1
2. Barrington (2) 154 - 2
3. South Kingstown 143 - 3
4. Cranston East 137 - 4
5. East Providence 122 -5
