The Hilltoppers haven't been challenged much, but the trip to Kentucky to play No. 6 Marion County Saturday should get the engines revved up — and determine if this ranking is too high for a two-loss team.
12. (14) Pflugerville (Texas) 29-0Pflugerville doesn't play a team above .500 until Feb. 5, the last game of the regular season. And the Panthers already beat that opponent, Cedar Ridge, by 31.
13. (12) Regis Jesuit (Aurora, Colo.) 13-1No. 5 Fairmont was too tough for young Regis Jesuit at the Classic in the Country in Ohio, but Regis bounced back to thump McKinley, another solid Ohio team, by 29.
14. (20) Our Lady of Good Counsel (Olney, Md.) 16-3Lindsey Spann (20 points),
Amanda Fioravanti (17) and tough defense propelled Good Counsel to a tip-to-horn 70-60 win over previous No. 5 St. John's. But Pennsylvania's Archbishop Carroll is another challenge Sunday.
15. (5) St. John's (Washington, D.C.) 16-1Two first-quarter technical fouls blunted a St. John's run, and the Cadets never got back in the game against No. 14 Good Counsel. The series now stands at 1-1, and the two might meet again in the Washington Catholic Athletic Confrerence playoffs.
