After falling to Weymouth on Monday for their third loss in four games, Wellesley dips a bit to No. 5.

Though they haven’t played in a week, the Timberwolves are on a three game winning streak, and wins over the Raiders and Warriors bumps them up to fourth.

With the win over the Tigers and mostly tight contest with the Wamps, the Wildcats move up one spot to No. 7.
