MSA Top-25 boys basketball rankings: Jan. 31st – Feb. 6th GP # 2
MSA Top-25 boys basketball rankings: Jan. 31st – Feb. 6th
It wasn’t the most ideal week for athletes across Maryland as Winter Storm Jonas dumped nearly three feet of snow throughout the state. And though that was the case, cleanup crews were able to shovel and dig their way out of the “snowpocalypse” to at least be able to get in one day of athletic events on Saturday, January 30th.
Not much has changed in our basketball rankings for the past week. No. 4 Oakland Mills cruised to a convincing 47-point win over Reservoir while Kennedy trumped No. 18 Springbrook in our upset of the week.
No. 10 Quince Orchard and No. 11 Hammond both earned 17-point victories. Springbrook dropped out of the Top-25 while Centennial entered the 25th slot.
Every Monday, Maryland Sports Access will provide boys basketball rankings from the regions of Baltimore, Frederick, Howard, Montgomery and Prince George’s.
Teams from those regions are compiled and ranked Associated Press style based off of how the panel feels about where they stand up to date.
