Long Island Lutheran moves up two spots this week to No. 2 in the rankings after going to IMG Academy and defeating previously 13th-ranked Ascenders 83-81 in overtime.
The schedule won't get any easier for the new No. 2 Crusaders, however, as they will be tested with a matchup against Cooper Flagg and No. 1 Montverde Academy this Friday. Gonzaga College moved up three spots to No. 20 after posting three league wins in the always-tough WCAC. The highlight was a 70-52 home win over former No. 21 Bishop O'Connell.
