There was some shuffling and a couple of changes at the top of the classes but not a whole lot of exiting and entering in this week’s Trib HSSN weekly boys basketball state rankings as the regular season concludes.

We have four new No. 1 teams in Class 6A, 4A, 3A and Class A as only Archbishop Wood in Class 5A and Bishop Guilfoyle in 2A survived being on top of the hill.

While there was some shuffling in each class, only three teams dropped out of the top five, including Fox Chapel, which had been No. 1 in 6A, Archbishop Ryan in 5A and Archbishop Carroll in 4A.

New to the rankings this week is a pair of District 10 teams in McDowell (6A) and Cathedral Prep (5A) along with Lancaster Catholic (4A).
