MOUNTAIN BROOK, AL — Top-ranked 7A school Thompson has made a habit out of knocking off Class 6A no. 1 teams this season. Mountain Brook can attest to that. The Spartans had been ranked no. 1 in the Alabama Sports Writers Association top 10 6A poll for five straight weeks before losing to Thompson 31-0 Friday night. But Mountain Brook was able to ascend to that top spot thanks to what Thompson did earlier in the season. The Warriors beat preseason 6A no. 1 Oxford in Week 1 to allow Mountain Brook to move into the top spot. Oxford is now back in that sport, while Mountain Brook dropped to no. 3. The Spartans play Briarwood Friday, Oct. 9. The ASWA Class 6A poll this week: 1. Oxford (23); 5-1; 276 2. Saraland; 5-1; 190 3. Mountain Brook; 4-1; 181 4. Clay-Chalkville; 5-0; 164 5.
