The Goddard Lions football team stands alone atop the Ark Valley Chisholm Trail 2 football standings after just two weeks of the 2022 season.

The Lions are joined by Andover and Eisenhower High Schools in the AVCTL 2 standings as being the three teams with undefeated, 1-0, AVCTL 2 records. But, the Lions are the only team in the league that is still undefeated overall. The rest of the league all stands together with 1-1 records.

This past week was the first week that saw AVCTL 2 intraconference play and Goddard took its stand at the top with a 30-7 victory over Valley Center.
