Don’t look at the final score in Bryant’s 38-17 win over Benton last Friday night.

The game wasn’t that close.

The top-ranked Hornets led 31-7 at halftime, then just didn’t want to do anything to help the Panthers in the second half and was the unanimous top team in the Arkansas State Media high school poll after Week 0.

Conway stayed at No. 2 despite not having a game.

Bentonville moved up a spot after North Little Rock lost to Little Rock Catholic, 23-6, and disappeared from the poll.

Pulaski Academy moved up two spots and Cabot went from eighth to fifth after a 31-28 win over Fayetteville, who dropped from fifth to eighth.

Bentonville West downed Tulsa Washington, 28-7, and went from No. 9 to No. 6.

Greenwood was seventh, Little Rock Parkview ninth and Little Rock Christian rounded out the Top 10.
