R.I. high school football poll Week 1

The high school season kicked off last week, with three of our four teams winning, but maybe the biggest surprise was the team that lost. Rogers had La Salle Academy on the ropes into the fourth quarter before falling 14-6. The result in the poll for the Vikings was a spot in this week's top 20.

Portsmouth, on the strength of a 25-6 victory over Mount Hope, moved into the No. 5 spot, while Middletown moved up a spot to No. 13 after beating Central Falls 32-0. Tiverton, which beat Hope 30-14, is receiving votes.

Again, the number in parenthesis is first-place votes, the next number is total votes and the last number is where the team was last week.
