Polls, polls and more polls

I hope you like high school football polls because I'm about to create a scroll-fest by unleashing a few here. I've bolded teams from The Wilson Daily Times readership area.

Let's start with the latest Associated Press prep football rankings, which came out a day later this week due to several games played Monday.
