SOUTH PLAINFIELD, NJ–After some thought, Big Central Gridiron has decided to put together a BCC Small School Top 10. In the inaugural poll, Delaware Valley claims the top spot after its Week 6 win over A.L. Johnson (26-0). St. Thomas Aquinas comes in at No. 2 with its fifth straight shutout to start the season, a 51-0 win over Belvidere. Keep in mind, Delaware Valley visits Aquinas on October 29th in North Edison. Bernards, Hillside, and New Providence round out the Top 5. Hillside hosts Delaware Valley at Conant Street Park next Saturday. Roselle, Brearley, Middlesex, Bound Brook, and South Hunterdon round out the Top 10 with South River and Manville just missing out. Current records in parenthesis.
