Which central Ohio high school football teams are ranked in latest Associated Press poll?

In what was arguably the biggest high school football game in Ohio in Week 6, Maria Stein Marion Local edged Versailles 14-13 in a matchup of the No. 1 teams in Division VII and Division VI, respectively.

The voters' respect for Marion Local is clear, because Versailles didn't fall from No. 1 in the third Associated Press Ohio poll of the season. Also in Division VI, West Jefferson stayed at No. 3.

In Division III, Watterson and London stayed at No. 4 and No. 6, respectively, following wins over Hartley (35-7) and Bellefontaine (36-6).

In Division I, Olentangy's 27-20 loss to Olentangy Berlin dropped it from No. 4 to No. 10. That is two spots ahead of Berlin, which didn't receive any votes last week.

Here are the rankings for divisions I-VII with first-place votes in parentheses, won-loss record for top-10 teams and total points.
