There was some significant movement in the Friday Night Drive Power Rankings after an eventful opening week.

The No. 1 team remains East St. Louis. Having survived a challenge from Missouri power Christian Brothers, the Flyers continue to fend off several other contenders for the top spot. Most notable from that group is Warren, which will once again test itself in a matchup with the No. 11 team, Maine South.

Five new teams entered the Top 25 headlined by No. 18 St. Charles North. Also breaking into the rankings for the first time were Wheaton Warrenville South (No. 19), Bolingbrook (No. 22), Lemont (No. 24) and Fenwick (No. 25).
