Prep Hoops Indiana Week 11 Class-by-Class Polls

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is girl's Sectional week in Indiana which means on the boys side the schedule is very different than usual. There are fewer games than normal on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, but a full slate on Thursday and then games on Saturday afternoon. We are back here on Monday morning to provide a new and updated look at the rankings. Here are our official Prep Hoops Indiana Week 11 Class-by-Class Rankings.</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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1 Kouts</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2 Liberty Christian</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">12-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3 Barr-Reeve</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4 Hauser</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5 Bloomfield</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6 Orleans</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7 Triton</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8 West Central</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9 Southwood</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10 Loogootee</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kouts keeps winning and doing so in impressive fashion. Liberty Christian is continuing to prove that they are one of the favorites in the class. West Central's undefeated season was snapped in overtime against a solid Winamac team who has won a lot of games so they just fell a few spots. Bloomfield had the win of the week defeating Loogootee and moved up a spot to #5. Meanwhile, speaking of Loogootee, we believe recent close losses to Barr-Reeve and Bloomfield do more to prove that they are a Top 10 team than anything else.</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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1 Oak Hill</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2 Gary 21st Century</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">9-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3 Parke Heritage</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4 Westview</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5 Triton Central</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6 Park Tudor</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">9-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7 Centerville</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8 University</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">10-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9 Scecina Memorial</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">12-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10 Paoli</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">NR</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We aren't going to move Oak Hill off of the top spot now that they have it and continue to win, mostly in dominant fashion. However, Gary 21st Century just beat Class 4A #1 Crown Point 74-60 showing their incredible upside and it feels silly having Parke Heritage at #3 when their four losses are all to very good Class 4A teams. Westview continues to be impressive, but there is a pretty clear gap right now between the top three and 4-10. Paoli had two impressive wins over the weekend and remain undefeated. Their resume is simply more impressive than 15-0 Bremen so they got the #10 spot this week.</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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1 Silver Creek</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2 Cathedral</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3 Northview</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">12-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4 Princeton Community</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5 Shelbyville</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6 Columbia City</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7 Gibson Southern</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">11-4</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#7</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8 Evansville Bosse</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">10-6</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#8</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9 Blackhawk Christian</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">12-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#9</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10 Crispus Attucks</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">10-5</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#10</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As always, the easiest decision to make each week is putting Silver Creek at #1 in Class 3A. The next easiest decision is making Cathedral #2. However, after that, this class gets tough. Columbia City lost 70-67 in overtime to New Haven. New Haven probably deserves to be ranked, but we like the overall body of work of some of these other teams more still. We will continue buying into the fact that Bosse, Blackhawk, and Attucks are Top 10 teams despite records that may not be as flashy.</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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><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 class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1 Fishers</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">18-0</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#2 Plainfield</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#3 Lawrence North</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-2</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#4 Pike</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15-3</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#5 Crown Point</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14-1</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#1</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">#6 Mt.

We ultimately gave Crown Point the nod for the number one spot because they won the matchup at Charlie Hughes. Is it fair to use June basketball as a data point? Maybe, maybe not but we had to decide somehow. For over two months we felt pretty good about our choice as both teams remained undefeated. However, that came to an end on Saturday as Crown Point fell to Gary 21st Century. Fishers is now #1 which is a spot they are very worthy to hold. Due to the margins between spots being so thin Crown Point fell all the way to #5. Ben Davis hangs in at #10 following a two-point loss to #7 Carmel just as the Greyhounds remained at #7 following a three-point loss to Fishers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
