It's rivalries like Wootton-Churchill girls lacrosse -- which I had the pleasure of watching yesterday -- that make high school sports so awesome.

FOR RYAN OUT LOUD!
Chapter 8: March 28, 2009


After seeing the raucous celebration and the quotes ("It's the biggest thing in my life") following Churchill’s girls lacrosse win over Wootton, it got me thinking about what are the best rivalries in the county.

Now let me say this first of all. I did not grow up in Montgomery County so I don’t have the perspective of many of you out there. I’m judging on what I’ve seen over the past season and a ½. So I'll admit, this list probably isn't 100 percent accurate -- so please don't call me bad names and berate me over email!

That’s why I want YOUR FEEDBACK. I want this to be an evolving Top 10 rivalries list.

Email me at rmink@digitalsports.com with your argument and give me your reasons!

I’ll revise the list next week...
