With wins over a pair of Class 2A schools in the first two weeks of the season, the Vermilion Catholic Eagles moved up a spot in the Week 3 poll for Class A football teams in Louisiana.
VC (2-0) opened the season with a 26-14 win over Catholic High of New Iberia, which is receiving votes in the 2A poll, and followed that with a 30-28 win over Ascension Episcopal in Week 2.
