And, now, here are the league rankings entering Tuesday's games -- the last night of league play until Jan. 4.
LEHIGH VALLEY CONFERENCE
1. Easton (4-0, 1-0) ...We'll find out more about the Red Rovers tonight when they host Liberty.
2. Nazareth (4-0, 1-0) ... Somehow, I forgot the Blue Eagles when I compiled our first Top 10 last week. Obviously, they belong near the top. Won't be forgotten again.
3. Liberty (3-1, 1-0) ... Only loss so far was a one-pointer in overtime to Pocono Mountain East.
4. Allen (2-1, 1-0) ... Finally play at home in a Christmas tournament next week.
5. Central Catholic (2-1, 1-0) ...Vikings will use holiday break to get football players back in the fold.
6. Emmaus (2-1, 0-1) ...Green Hornets will miss Bobal for up to a month, but should have enough talent to stay above water.
7. Becahi (2-2, 0-1) ...Golden Hawks are playing better defense, but now may lack offensive firepower.
8. Dieruff (2-2, 0-1) ... May get to see Huskies against Catty in the Northampton Christmas tournament.
9. Whitehall (1-3, 1-0) ... All three losses have come by single digits.
10. Parkland (1-3, 0-1) ... Can't win many games when you average just 41 ppg.
11. Freedom (0-4, 0-1) ... A 63-33 loss to Pocono Mt. West? Ouch.
12. Northampton (0-3, 0-1) ... Great chance for first win tonight against Parkland.
COLONIAL LEAGUE
1. Bangor (4-0, 3-0 ) ... Slaters' four wins have come by an average of 36.5 points.
2. Wilson (4-1, 3-0) ... Once again, Bob Frankenfield was a master at lowering expectations during our preseason conversation. No one's fooled now.
3. Saucon Valley (2-2, 2-1) ... Will try to put tough one-point loss to Wilson behind them tonight when Panthers play Southern Lehigh.
4. Notre Dame (4-1, 3-1) ... Pat Boyle probably still basking in the glow of that Central Catholic state football championship.
5. Salisbury (2-2, 1-2) ... Tonight's game against Wilson is the game-of-the-night in the Colonial.
6. Northern Lehigh (2-1, 2-1) ... Ran into a buzzsaw at Bangor, but soft schedule has allowed Bulldogs time to regroup.
7. Palmerton (3-1, 2-1) ... Is it too early to think District 11 playoffs for the obviously improved Bombers?
8. Southern Lehigh (1-4, 0-3) ... Spartans seem to be in every game, but can't seem to sustain things.
9. Catasauqua (1-3, 1-2) ... Key early-season game against Northern Lehigh tonight if Roughies want to build some momentum.
10. Palisades (1-4, 1-3) ... Pirates aren't that bad, just stuck in a brutal division. Could go 5-1 against the North later on.
11. Pen Argyl (2-3, 1-2) ... Green Knights have already matched win total of all of last year.
12. Northwestern (1-4, 0-3) ... Playing Bangor tonight not exactly best way to get into the holiday spirit.
