With last week's ranking in parenthesis
By The Pinellas Top 10
© St. Petersburg Times, published September 16, 2001
1. (1) Seminole (2-0) -- Easy win after shaky opener; will enjoy one more blowout (Boca Ciega) before true tests begin.
2. (2) Tarpon Springs (2-0) -- Put up 28 first-half points and defense stood tall following five Sponger turnovers.
3. (4) CC Catholic (2-0) -- Want to see CCC versus a county foe? There's SPC on Oct. 12 and this week at Palm Harbor U.
4. (6) Northeast (2-0) -- Week 1 win at East Lake looks even more impressive; first home game this week against St. Petersburg.
5. (8) East Lake (1-1) -- Whoa!!! Win at Countryside not an upset, but 69-20 score is a shocker; bruising ground game leads the way.
6. (5) Lakewood (1-1) -- Tough schedule ahead: Largo, Osceola, Tarpon; defense will face different challenges in each.
7. (9) Largo (2-0) -- Loves a low-scoring trench fight; beat this week's opponent, Lakewood, 6-0 last year.
8. (3) Countryside (1-1) -- Ouch, ouch, ouch; Cougars take step back with East Lake massacre; confident Dunedin is next.
9. (NR) Osceola (2-0) -- No postseason does not equal no incentive; might feast on teams looking ahead to district games.
10. (10) Dixie Hollins (1-1) -- Only five first downs and 103 total yards against Northeast; must improve to win at Tarpon.
Week 2
OFFENSE: Mike Scanlon -- The running back led Clearwater Central Catholic with 161 yards rushing, 39 yards receiving and an interception in a 14-6 win over three-time Class A state champion Tallahassee North Florida Christian.
DEFENSE: Nate Huegal -- The East Lake linebacker returned two fumbles for touchdowns and helped the Eagles hold Countryside quarterback Kyle Wolfinbarger to 43 yards passing.
