A win over Central Community pushed the Centralia Orphans into the No. 4 spot in this week's Illinois Media Class 4A prep football poll. The Orphans had trailed Central in the poll for most of this year with the Cougars at No. 4 and Centralia at No. 5 for the past three weeks until the Orphans won last week's showdown between the two 42-33. Central is now sixth in 4A with Coal City moving into the No. 5 slot. Morris jumped into the No. 1 position after Rochester lost to Springfield Sacred Heart-Griffin and dropped to No. 3 with Lombard Montini at No. 2. Morris plays at No. 8 Cahokia tonight while Centralia travels to Effingham and Central faces Herrin. In Class 2A, the Nashville Hornets broke into the rankings at No. 10. The Hornets face Chester tonight. The final poll of the season will take place next week.
