, another Kansas signee, piled up 37 points and 14 rebounds as the Falcons flew past Northwest (Wichita) 83-61 on Friday night. The win helped Heights equal the all-time record in Kansas for consecutive wins at 59.
12. (13) Olympic (Charlotte, N.C.) (24-0)Allerik Freeman poured in 29 points to help the Trojans close out the regular season unbeaten with an 82-72 win over Charlotte Catholic. Freeman, a 6-foot-3 guard pegged as one of the nation's top Class of 2013 recruits, leads Olympic in scoring this season at 18 points per game.
13. (14) Columbia (Decatur, Ga.) (23-1)After holding a pair of opponents under 30 points last week, the Eagles are allowing just 39.8 points per game during the 2012 calendar year.
14. (15) Proviso East (Maywood, Ill.) (21-0)The Pirates have had only two games decided by single digits all season. In Illinois' massive state tournament bracket, a Proviso East-Simeon matchup might be a long shot but the two nationally-ranked Land of Lincoln squads to play in back-to-back games at next Saturday's City-Suburban Showdown.
15. (8) Southwind (Memphis, Tenn.) (25-3)It's likely that Southwind will get another crack at Ridgeway at some point in Tennessee's Class AAA playoffs.
