The Chapmanville Regional High School football team remained at the No. 3 spot in this week's WVSSAC Class AA Computer Ratings which were released on Tuesday.

The unbeaten Tigers are 8-0 with 11.50 points, behind No. 1 Keyser (7-0), which had 12.86 points and No. 2 Grafton (7-0) which was third with 12.57 points.

Chapmanville is off this Friday night and closes out the regular season Oct. 31 at home against Wayne and Nov. 7 at Point Pleasant.

Wayne is just behind the Tigers in the fourth spot with a 6-1 record and 10.14 rating. Point Pleasant is rated 11th this week with a 5-3 record and 7.00 rating.

Chapmanville has already clinched a playoff spot and are hoping to secure homefield advantage for the postseason.

The Tigers are looking to finish the regular season 10-0 and have their first unbeaten campaign since the 1985 and 1985 teams closed out with identical 10-0 marks.

Chapmanville breezed past winless Tug Valley, 45-8, last Friday night at Naugatuck.

Ravenswood (6-1) was ranked fifth in this week's ratings, while Scott (5-2) was sixth, Webster County (7-1) seventh, James Monroe (5-2) eighth, Weir (5-2) ninth and Wyoming East (5-2) 10th. Shady Spring (5-3) was 12th, while Bluefield (5-2) and Frankfort (5-2) were tied for 13th. Magnolia (5-3) and Philip Barbour (5-3) were tied for 15th. Independence (5-3) was 17th and Tolsia (4-3) 18th.

The Beavers beat the Tigers 41-18 in the second round of last year's playoffs at Bluefield's Mitchell Stadium. Chapmanville beat Keyser's Golden Tornado, 18-14, in the opening round.
