DMV Top 30 Power Rankings: Week 1
It’s been a long summer of AAU and various exposure camps, but high school hoops is finally back in full swing. The local basketball community, and now most of the country is probably well aware of the level of talent across the DMV into Baltimore, and we plan to keep up with as much of the action as we can this season. While it’s still very early, and most teams are still yet to play their first game, we have compiled a list of the top 30 teams from the D.C. Metro area and Baltimore.
The , released every Monday during the season, is just our opinion. If you have an issue with the rankings, or have a question or comment for us, send us an email or contact us via Twitter.
