Is St. Frances that football factory in B'more? They have to play schools outside their league because they are so much better than the other teams?

pretty much. I believe it was after the 2017 season that the other prep schools in their region stopped playing St. Frances Academy. They couldn't really compete with them. That season:

- they bested Calvert Hall, 28-7
- they bested Loyola Blakefield, 65-0
- they bested McDonogh, 28-0
- they bested Gilman, 50-0
- they bested Archbishop Spalding, 42-7
- they bested Mount St. Joseph, 37-22
- they bested Silver Oak Academy, 53-0
- and then bested McDonogh and Gilman in the playoffs, 49-7 and 44-7, respectively

This past season, St. Frances Acad. played:

St. Thomas Aquinas (FL)
Franklin (MD)
Our Lady of Good Counsel (MD)
De La Salle (CA)
Acad. of the New Church (PA)
Life Christian Academy (VA)
West Toronto Prep (Canada)
St. Thomas More (CT)
IMG Academy (FL)
