National Defensive Leaders: Div. 1

   For a refreshing change of focus, we're celebrating the top performances of the year(so far), in defensive categories.  Some of these athletic performances are only separated by mere hundredths of a unit. 
   Some leaders were omitted from this list because their team stats are not up-to-date. If your team hasn't finished posting game stats to Maxpreps.com, you have until November 13th, to complete your game stats and be added to the national leaders charts.
   We expect all head coaches to look over his team's stat reports and correct any typos or incorrect game details.
