Since play has yet to start in California and most of Texas, there was almost no change between the preseason rankings and this week's SIMA FAB 50s.

On the boys side, Montverde Academy (Montverde, Fla.) is off to a 10-0 start and halfway home to a fourth straight SIMA FAB 50 No. 1 finish. Meanwhile, Southlake Carroll (Southlake, Texas) is No. 1 in the girls rankings and will hold that spot at least until early January when the team starts regular season play.

BIG MOVERS -- BOYS: San Clemente (San Clemente, Calif.). The Triton were the only team to move up more than one spot last week, going from No. 48 to No. 46. GIRLS: Ursuline Academy (Dallas, Texas). Ursuline and TAPPS rival Nolan Catholic (Fort Worth, Texas) each moved up three spots in this week's Top 25. They enter the week a combined 9-0.

NEWCOMERS: BOYS: No. 27 Ponte Vedra (Ponte Vedra, Fla.), No. 33 Fleming Island (Fleming Island, Fla.), No. 45 Palm Beach Lakes (West Palm Beach, Fla.), No. 47 Sunlake (Land O'Lakes, Fla.) and No. 50 Rivera (Brownsville, Texas). GIRLS: No. 23 Oviedo (Oviedo, Fla.) and No. 50 Cinco Ranch (Katy, Texas).

LOOKING AHEAD: -- BOYS: Although on the surface, section power Buchanan (Clovis, Calif.) would be an easy favorite over Roosevelt (Fresno Calif.), which is coming off an eight-loss season. However, it was Roosevelt that handed Buchanan its lone draw in a 21-3-1 seson last year. GIRLS: No. 48 St. Francis-Mountain View (Mountain View, Calif.) takes on No. 16 Monte Vista (Danville, Calif.) and No. 17 Sacred Heart Prep (Atherton, Calif.) this week. The outcomes of these two matches will be important in sizing up the top NorCal programs this season.
