Prep Hoops Indiana Week 13 Class-by-Class Top 10 Polls

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are somehow already nearing the end of the regular season. The annual Sectional draw will be this coming Sunday and this is the penultimate week of the regular season. Prep Hoops Indiana will have boots on the ground from several games this week and, as always, will keep eyes and ears in gyms all across the state. Let's dive on in and take a look at our updated Class-by-Class Top 10 Polls.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class 1A</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Team</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Record</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Previous Ranking</strong></td></tr><tr><td>#1 Clay City</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td>#2 Orleans</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td>#3 Clinton Prairie</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td>#4 Hauser</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td>#5 Bloomfield </td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-7</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td>#6 Kouts</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td>#7 Christian Academy</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">12-7</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td>#8 Barr-Reeve</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td>#9 Washington Township</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">16-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10</td></tr><tr><td>#10 Carroll (Flora)</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Clay City certainly is worthy of moving into the Prep Hoops Indiana Class 1A #1 spot after Orleans' loss. That loss doesn't really hurt them at all, it was to a very good Class 2A Paoli team, but it is time to get the Eels to #1. Everything else stayed pretty chalk besides Bloomfield and Carroll (Flora) falling slightly after losses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class 2A</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Team</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Record</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Previous Ranking</strong></td></tr><tr><td>#1 South Ripley</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">19-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td>#2 Gary 21st Century</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-6</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td>#3 Bishop Luers</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td>#4 Manchester</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td>#5 Parke Heritage</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td>#6 Wapahani</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">19-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td>#7 Linton</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td>#8 Lapel</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td>#9 Providence</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td>#10 Paoli</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">16-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">NR</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Undefeated South Ripley finally takes over at #1 after a pair of losses from Bishop Luers. They were both to Class 4A programs, but games we would have expected the Knights to have a chance to win. Paoli overtook Northeastern for the #10 spot because their win over Orleans over the weekend was impressive enough to make the jump. This is a very strong class in terms of records, but Luers and 21st Century have a pretty clear advantage in terms of raw talent. It will be interesting to see how the tournament shakes out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class 3A</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Team</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Record</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Previous Ranking</strong></td></tr><tr><td>#1 Cathedral</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">16-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td>#2 New Palestine</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">20-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td>#3 South Bend St. Joseph</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td>#4 Brownstown Central</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td>#5 Guerin Catholic</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td>#6 Crispus Attucks</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-6</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td>#7 Blackhawk Christian</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td>#8 NorthWood</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td>#9 Silver Creek</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td>#10 Gary West Side</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We flipped Brownstown Central and Guerin Catholic after the Golden Eagles fell to New Palestine, but that was the only change here this week in a loaded Class 3A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class 4A</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Team</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Record</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Previous Ranking</strong></td></tr><tr><td>#1 Fishers</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">21-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td>#2 Avon </td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td>#3 Westfield</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td>#4 Greenfield-Central</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td>#5 Jeffersonville</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10</td></tr><tr><td>#6 Crown Point </td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">16-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td>#7 Lawrence North</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td>#8 South Bend Riley</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">16-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">NR</td></tr><tr><td>#9 Noblesville</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td>#10 Anderson</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It was a chaotic week here in Class 4A aside from slotting Fishers into the #1 spot as usual. Avon moved up to #2 after a pair of wins and a loss by Greenfield-Central. Westfield and Jeffersonville were the biggest climbers as neither took a loss. Noblesville beat Anderson, but then lost to Brownsburg to keep them from shooting up the polls. Ben Davis would have gotten into the Top 10 after beating Lawrence North, but they turned around and lost to Lawrence Central. It was hard to know what to make of the rankings really after putting Fishers and #1 and Avon at #2. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
