Boys Lacrosse Top 10
*Rankings as of May 15
1. Georgetown Prep (20-3/LW 2)
Despite having to share the IAC title with Landon, the Little Hoyas proved they are the area’s best team with a blowout win in the tournament final.
2. Landon (18-4/LW 1)
It was still an extremely good season for the Bears. Not many people expected them to beat Prep the first time.
3. DeMatha (15-6/ LW 3)
The Stags finally avenged a conference finals loss to St. Mary’s Ryken from 2007 and have now won back-to-back WCAC titles.
4. St. Albans (14-6-1/LW 4)
IAC is over but on to play against the private schools starting with St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes.
5. St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes (13-5-1/LW 5)
The Saints barely lost to Landon, 4-2, in the IAC semis.
6. Wootton (17-0/LW 6)
Wootton won its fourth straight 4A West region championship. Can the Patriots take the next step and reach the state semis?
7. Chantilly (13-1/LW 8)
The Chargers still haven’t lost in Virginia but got a major scare from Westfield. Chantilly won 5-4 in double OT. Up next is Langley on Monday.
8. St. Mary’s Ryken (13-4-1/LW 9)
The Knights couldn’t get their second WCAC title in three years but it was still a very successful season.
9. Huntingtown (12-2/LW 7)
The Hurricanes’ season is over after a 17-10 loss to Severna Park in the 4A/3A East region playoffs. But that was about as hard a semifinals opponent as they could have seen.
10. Langley (16-1/LW NR)
Langley avenged its only Virginia loss by beating Madison by three goals and has now won six straight games.
