Maryland Powerhouse St. Francis Drops Out Of National Ranking
St. Frances Academy now faces a crucial decision: will they turn their season around and salvage what they can, or will they continue on this downward trajectory?
A 0-4 start for St. Francis Academy represents a significant departure from their previous successes and lofty national ranking. It indicates a challenging and turbulent beginning to their season, raising several concerns and questions about the team’s performance and prospects.
When #4 St. Francis Academy (Maryland) opened their season against #7 Buford (Georgia), no one expected an 18-0 shutout victory from Buford. As tensions reached a boiling point, a brawl ensued, overshadowing the highly anticipated play of two standout quarterbacks. Buford’s Dylan Raiola, a Georgia-bound talent and the nation’s top prospect in 2024, faced off against St. Frances Academy’s Michael Van Buren, a four-star Oregon commit. However, the headlines were ultimately dominated by the dramatic turn of events as the clock neared its final moments.
St. Francis has had a tough start to the season, as they have lost the last four games and dropped out of the national rankings. In their previous four games, they gave up 103 points and scored only 35.
