Week 3 rankings: Which Fort Worth-area high school football teams are on the rise?

Texas high school football in the Fort Worth-area is off and running. With most teams concluding non-district play, the rankings are starting to take shape.

In general, there wasn’t a ton of movement this week. Most teams at the top, including kingpins Aledo and Southlake Carroll, took care of business.

The top eight teams in Class 6A are undefeated, which will set up some high stakes matchups down the line. Head coach Carlos Lynn and the Crowley Eagles are on the rise and could be soaring even higher.

In Class 5A, Everman, Colleyville Heritage and Fort Worth Arlington Heights made jumps with wins. In Class 4A, the undefeated Fort Worth Benbrook Bobcats made their debut in the rankings.

Grapevine Faith fell in the private school rankings after a tough, lopsided loss to Episcopal School of Dallas. Fort Worth Mercy Culture preps, once again, moved higher with a win.
