Weekly prep writers poll (Sept. 21)

Here is the weekly prep writers poll. Myrtle Beach and Carvers Bay are the only teams to be ranked and Loris got two points in Class AA, but they are not in the top 10. Myrtle Beach's win over Hartsville knocked the previously unbeaten Red Foxes right out the AAAA rankings. Carvers Bay moved up to No. 2 after Calhoun County, who had been No. 2, had an unimpressive win last weekend.
