Hmm. I'm a little surprised that Country Day got more votes than Runnels, considering the records, head-to-head result (3-0 win by Runnels) and common opponents: Runnels beat Dunham by a goal, while CD played them to a draw; Runnels lost 5-0 at UHigh, while CD lost 10-1.

Not a big deal, though, as I think it's accurate that neither is quite Top 10. But all four of Runnels' wins have come against decent teams that at least got a vote or two (Country Day, Dunham, Hannan and Opelousas).

When was the last time, if ever, the top five from DI or DII was all public schools?

I've been around for a long time and I can't ever remember the top five being all public schools.
Coachray? Scott?

Given Catholic schools' affinity for having great programs throughout Louisiana sports history, I doubt it's ever happened.

Just the fact that the top 3 in D-II right now are all public schools is impressive to me, though, as always, several Catholic schools are right behind them waiting for someone to slip up.

Wreckin Rams!!!! (Acadiana) and Mighty Lions!!!! (Lafayette) in top four... as it should be!

Last year, in DII, there was a time where BC, Bolton, BF, EJ and Lakeshore were all near it, but not the whole of the top 5.  That is the closest I have seen and right now the top 3 in D2 are public, true public, as well.
