Southern Nevada Class 5A football rankings

1. Bishop Gorman (1-0)

2. Liberty (2-0)

3. Desert Pines (1-0)

4. Green Valley (2-0)

5. Arbor View (1-1)

Around 5A: Gorman and Desert Pines had games canceled last week. Gorman will have another chance for a big win when it travels across the country to meet an always-strong Miami Central (Florida) team Saturday. … Liberty has cruised in its first two games against 5A foes Arbor View and Canyon Springs and now gets a Foothill team that has yet to play. … Green Valley should be tested against a physical Palo Verde team after outscoring Canyon Springs and Chaparral by a combined 102-6. … Arbor View bounced back from its opening loss to Liberty with an impressive defensive showing in a 23-3 win over Faith Lutheran.
