There’s a new No. 1 in 6A, two teams share No. 1 in 5A in latest USA TODAY Indiana poll


As expected, Brownsburg jumped a spot to No. 1 after its win over previously top-ranked Westfield on Saturday in the latest USA TODAY Network Indiana state high school football poll.

Brownsburg (6-0) is No. 1 for the first time this season, followed by No. 2 Warren Central (6-0). Westfield (5-1) is now tied for third with Crown Point (6-0) in Class 6A.

There is also a new No. 1 in Class 5A — actually two new No. 1s. Concord (6-0) and Merrillville (5-1) are tied for first in 5A after previous No. 1 Plainfield dropped a 42-21 game to Decatur Central on Saturday. The Quakers dropped to No. 4. New Palestine (4A), Evansville Memorial (3A), Lafayette Central Catholic (2A) and North Judson (A) remained in the top spot in the other four classes.

Maximum Offer Relishes Stakes in Indiana Oaks

Maximum Offer Relishes Stakes in Indiana Oaks


There was no catching Maximum Offer  in the $200,000 Indiana Oaks (G3) July 11 at Horseshoe Indianapolis.

The Kenny McPeek trainee broke alertly from the gate and cleared the field under Luis Saez in the 1 1/16-mile test for 3-year-old fillies. She maintained her lead throughout, opening up through the stretch to win by 2 1/2 lengths over Betty’s Pearl .

Nahla  ran third, and completing the five-horse order of finish were favored Prom Queen  and Star Actress .

The winner was clocked in 1:42.65 over a fast track after posting fractions of :24.74, :48.95, 1:12.44, and 1:36.17. The 3-year-old daughter of Maxfield   notched her first stakes victory, and paid $13 for a $2 win ticket.

“She broke well and took the lead easy; I felt like I had the horse to fight anyone off,” Saez said. “She came into the stretch a pretty fresh filly.”

Maximum Offer is 3-0-1 in eight starts with earnings of $311,097 for owners Baccari Racing Stable, Alfred Riccio, and Robert Cotrone. She rebounded in the Indiana Oaks after finishing last of five in the June 5 Acorn Stakes (G1) at Saratoga Race Course. Prom Queen was 6 1/4 lengths ahead of her in fourth place that afternoon, but could not keep up with Maximum Offer Saturday.

Maximum Offer was a $170,000 purchase by McPeek from the Bedouin Bloodstock Consignment at the 2024 Keeneland September Yearling Sale.

Maxfield stood at Darley this year for a $50,000 fee.
