4:00pm | As expected, Long Beach Poly made a huge leap in the CIF PAC-5 Division standings this week after beating Moore League rival Lakewood (video highlights here), who suffered the consequences of a 27-14 loss and fell several spots.

Poly jumped from No. 10 to No. 6 after soundly defeating Lakewood last Friday, while the Lancers fell from No. 3 to No. 7. Poly now sits one spot higher than Lakewood, despite having two losses to Lakewood’s one. Of course, those two losses were to very strong competition in St. Bonaventure and Mission Viejo.

The division’s remaining undefeated teams like No. 1 Mission Viejo and No. 2 Servite could be heard giggling to themselves as the Moore League giants beat up on each other. It will be very interesting to see how the CIF Playoff seeds stack up in both Poly and Lakewood win through the rest of their schedules.

Bishop Amat replaces Lakewood at No. 3, while Alemany takes No. 4 and Santa Margarita moves to No. 5.
