Southern Wells maintained its grip atop the HoosierAuthority.com small school poll, while Culver Academy is the new top dog in the medium school division.

Coach Bob Swank of South Knox and his panel are hard at work to recognize Indiana’s best small and medium school teams.

Here are the panel’s rankings for week two…

first place vote and only five points separated them. Culver Academy took over first place from Chatard. Chatard dropped to third with West Lafayette also passing them. All four are strong candidates to qualify for state.
