What has been apparent for some time is now official. The Haverford School is the No. 1 team in the nation in the final USA TODAY High School Sports boy lacrosse rankings provided by 3d Rising.

Haverford, in suburban Philadelphia, finished its 26-0 season a few weeks ago, but other states were still playing. Massachusetts and Maine are finishing their seasons this weekend but that will not impact the Super 25 national rankings.

Haverford took over the top spot in Week 4 and remained No. 1 the rest of the way as they collected victories against a strong schedule. The Fords finished their season May 22 with a win against preseason No. 1 Culver (Ind.) Academy and also won the first Inter-Ac Challenge.

The Landon School (Bethesda, Md.) finished No. 2, followed by Gonzaga College High (Washington, D.C.), St. Ignatius Prep in San Francisco and The Hun School of Princeton, N.J.

Haverford is the lone Pennsylvania school in the final rankings. Eleven schools from New York state are ranked, followed by four from Maryland and three from Connecticut.
