Notes: This week’s poll includes four sources: Hoopniks, ESPN, MaxPreps and PrepNation. There was no available poll from USA Today during this period.
Not much change at the top of the poll, but one item of note is that MaxPreps is not including many, if any, prep schools in it’s Xcellent 25 rankings, which are put together by writers and coaches. I’m not currently using their Freeman 25 rankings, which are computer generated.
Finally: In the poll listing, the ‘high’ value represents the highest ranking in any poll that team received during the ranking period.
‘Qty’ represents how many polls they were ranked in. ‘AVG’ represents their average ranking in all polls where they were ranked.
