3) James Madison (10-1)
Last Week: #3
Recap: Going on the road in the semifinals to take on Tilden it was a flawless effort from QB Rickoy Riley as he threw for a TD and ran for another with the Golden Knights putting the game away midway through the 3rd Quarter after a 36 yard TD run from Mark Shepherd as Madison was able to take a 22-6 victory which advances them to the Bowl Division title game as they look to go for back to back championships.
Next: Saturday vs. #1 New Utrecht (PSAL Bowl Division Championship Game @ Abraham Lincoln H.S.)
4) St. Joseph by the Sea (8-2)
Last Week: #5
Recap: The disappointing news was that the Vikings fell in the CHSFL AA-2 championship game just over a week ago now 28-6 to their Staten Island rivals in Moore Catholic. If there is a positive it's that star QB Jackson Tucker was only a junior this season and will return after leading Sea to one of its best records in years with the future only looking even brighter for the football program.

5) Tilden (9-2)
Last Week: #4
Recap: Against a stout and physical James Madison defense on Saturday getting anything going on the offensive side of the ball proved to be extremely difficult for the Blue Devils as while Ishmael Mullings had a 7 yard TD run in the second quarter to tie the game up at 6 it was 16 straight to close things out for the Golden Knights as Tilden's season came to an end 22-6 in the PSAL Bowl Division semifinals.

6) Port Richmond (7-5)
Last Week: #6
Recap: Against an undefeated New Utrecht team in the PSAL Bowl Division semifinals on Saturday there just seemed to be very little that the Raiders could do. On their one chance in the red zone in the second quarter Port Richmond threw an interception which scurried any momentum they may have tried to gain as the Raiders season came to an end this past weekend in a 33-0 loss to the Utes.

7) McKee/Staten Island Tech (7-3)
Last Week: #7
Recap: Losing just over a week ago now in the PSAL Bowl Division quarterfinals to their archrivals in Port Richmond in the closing seconds had to leave a sour taste in the mouths of all the players for the Seagulls. Charles Metayer and company had a great season rushing the ball as it was a four headed monster getting the job done until the great breaking 21-20 defeat that ultimately put an end to McKee's season.

8) Eagle Academy III (5-6)
Last Week: #8
Recap: When you just look at the Eagles record you may not come away all that impressed, but when you delve into things a little more and see all the injuries they overcame and the fact they were able to make it to the PSAL Bowl Division quarterfinals you have to say for Shawn Vassell, Tajay Barnett, and the rest of Eagle III it was a fantastic overall season and one to certainly build upon moving forward.

9) Eagle Academy II (5-6)
Last Week: #9
Recap: Early in the season it was Mekhi Hicks who was able to do damage for Eagle Academy II on the ground, and as the year progressed it was more about what
Tywan Johnson could do as they became quite the dynamic duo for the Eagles who after a struggle at the beginning part of the year really came on strong at the close making it all the way to the PSAL Bowl Division quarterfinals in a solid 2019 campaign.

10) Thomas Jefferson (7-4)
Last Week: #10
Recap: The Orange Wave were able to do positive things all season long this season in the air as Devonte Smith once he took over the QB responsibilities threw for an astounding 90% completion percentage, while the running game from Shamel Bennett was solid as he ran for nearly 700 yards on the season for a Jefferson team that advanced to the PSAL Bowl Division quarterfinals in what has to be looked at as a very successful season.

1) Petrides (10-1)
Last Week: #1
Recap: In every aspect of the game it was the Panthers shining on Saturday afternoon as they knocked of Benjamin Cardozo at home 18-0 in the PSAL Cup Division semifinals to advance to Saturday's title game. Anthony Caserta had a rushing TD, Angelo Sereno recovered a fumble in the end zone for a defensive TD, while Ethan Cregin returned a punt for a TD as it's a well rounded Petrides team moving on to now play for the championship.
Next: Saturday vs. #2 William Grady (PSAL Cup Division Championship Game @ Abraham Lincoln H.S.)
2) William Grady (9-2)
Last Week: #3
Recap: When you have a RB like the Falcons have in William Stoney you make sure you feed him the ball and feed it to him often. That's exactly what Grady did on Saturday in their PSAL Cup Division semifinal against Beach Channel as the sophomore had 182 yards and 3 TD's, including a go ahead scoring midway through the final quarter to allow Grady to move into Saturday's title game with a 28-24 victory.
Next: Saturday vs. #1 Petrides (PSAL Cup Division Championship Game @ Abraham Lincoln H.S.)
3) Beach Channel (8-3)
Last Week: #2
Recap: After defeating Grady to close out the regular season at home many found it strange that the Dolphins were awarded the lower seed meaning they would be forced to go to Grady in the PSAL Cup Division semifinals on Saturday. Much like in their first encounter, won 24-21 by Beach Channel, Masiah Franklin and Eric Pryor each had TD runs, but the defense gave up a late go ahead score giving the Falcons the 28-24 win sending the Dolphins home a game short of playing for the championship.

4) Cardinal Spellman (4-4)
Last Week: #5
Recap: Losing a couple weeks back now in the CHSFL A championship game 39-33 in OT saw Cardinal Spellman lose a late lead that forced the game into the extra session only to see Kennedy Catholic come from behind to steal the title game win. It was a great season on the ground rushing the ball for Ethan Ortiz who had over 500 yards and 6 TD's in what was a tough end to another very good season for the Pilots.
Next: Season Over
5) Benjamin Cardozo (8-3)
Last Week: #4
Recap: All season long it's been the Tyler Ragler show for the Judges as the senior RB has dominated game after game for Cardozo, but in Saturday's PSAL Cup Division semifinal game at Petrides it was the Panthers limiting him to just 55 yards on the ground, and with the Judges seeing a blocked punt returned for a TD and fumble lost in the end zone for a TD it was just too much for Cardozo to overcome in an 18-0 loss.
