The following Pennsylvania field hockey programs are ranking in the top four spots as of September 15.

While the weighted percentages, calculated based on wins, losses, and strength of schedule, show close margins, many teams are within a tenth of a point of the team above them. This makes it possible for them to claim the top spots in their respective PIAA districts and classifications.
