Centaurs Still No. 7 in Football Poll

Culver City holds its place in the Western Division after a big win.

The CIF Southern Section office has released this week's football rankings, and stayed at No. 7 in the Western Division after its dominating 42-7 victory at Peninsula.

Ocean League rivals Santa Monica and Beverly Hills dropped off the "others under consideration" list even though both won last Friday.

West Hills Chaminade of the Mission League stayed atop the poll after its 14-10 victory over Valencia while St. Paul and Arroyo Grande held at No. 2 and No. 3 after each was victorious Friday. Serra moved up one spot from No. 4 to No. 5 after a 33-0 victory over Mira Costa. St. Francis jumped over Santa Maria St. Joseph into the No. 5 spot after its 35-0 shutout of Crescenta Valley. St. Joseph fell to sixth after losing 14-10 to Palma of the Central Coast Section. Dominguez held at No. 8, Atascadero held at No. 9 and Ventura remained 10th after all three won.
