Top 25 statewide rankings for boys basketball: Hopewell moves up into the list.
There are two additional teams included in this week’s HSOT statewide Top 25 rankings for boys basketball.
Hopewell, located in Mecklenburg County, has secured the 25th spot after nearly defeating Chambers at No. 16 during Friday’s game.
Davie County, with a record of 13 wins and 0 losses, has now made their debut in the rankings at No. 22. This marks the first appearance for the War Eagles in the statewide poll this season. Their recent victory on the road against Mount Tabor was quite impressive.
Chapel Hill was removed from the Top 25 rankings due to their recent defeats against Cardinal Gibbons on the road and Heritage at home. Hopewell took the place of Davidson Day, who was previously ranked at No. 24.
