It’s a great week for rivalry games between top teams in respective conferences, and Friday night’s game between St. Paul Johnson and St. Paul Central is a prime example, featuring two teams that have yet to lose in the St. Paul City Conference. Both have leapt way up in the Class 3A state rankings as a result of their starts to the season, in the case of Johnson all the way to No. 1. One will continue that hot start, while the other will be licking its wounds.
The Capitol City showdown is our top game of the week of Jan. 27-Feb. 2, 2014.
