Three weeks remain before the PIAA girls basketball brackets are finalized as the regular season concludes and the district playoffs begin.

With teams prepping for the postseason, very few changes were made from last week in the Trib HSSN girls basketball state rankings.

Only three teams lost their grip on the top five as losses dropped Nazareth, Woodland Hills and Serra Catholic from this week’s rankings.

The door was open, and Plymouth-Whitemarsh, Springfield-Delco and Bishop Canevin were eager to join the state elite.

There were no changes at the top as Bethel Park (Class 6A), Chartiers Valley (5A), North Catholic (4A), Delone Catholic (3A), Linden Hall in 2A and Jenkintown (A) remain on top of their classifications. Linden Hall lost, but it came at the hands of Class 4A No. 4 Lancaster Catholic, thus the Lions remain on top.

Here is the latest PIAA top five through Sunday. The team’s district is the number in parenthesis after its record, followed by the team’s ranking from last week.
