Holiday Break Rankings Update
It was another eventful week around the state, as we head into the holiday break with a pair of new teams atop the rankings in Class 3A and 4A.
In 4A, Waukee (5-0) takes over the top spot following Iowa City West’s loss to Senior. West falls from #1 to #8, and every team between moves up a spot, while Ankeny (5-1) and Prairie (6-0) hold down the final two positions. Senior lurks just outside the top 10, and likely would’ve gotten a spot if their Friday night loss to Hempstead had been a bit more competitive.
In 3A, Assumption (6-0) takes hold of the top spot. The Knights have been extremely impressive so far this season behind the strong play of forward Sean Peeters, who is averaging 23.2 points and 8.2 rebounds a night. Carroll (5-0) moves up to #2 following their win over then-#1 Winterset (5-1), who slides in behind the Tigers at #3. Sergeant Bluff-Luton (3-2) lost a pair of overtime games to undefeated 4A teams (Council Bluffs Abraham Lincoln, #2 Sioux City East), and remain in the rankings at #4. Marion (5-1) is the lone newcomer at #10.
The top nine teams in 2A remain the same, while Dike-New Hartford (6-0) enters at #10 following their win over then-#10 Aplington-Parkersburg. All ten teams in the 1A rankings went unbeaten last week and remain the same.
Enjoy the holiday break!
