11. (11) Villa Angela-St. Joseph (Cleveland), 10-1Taking No. 3 Oak Hill Academy to the wire in a loss at the Spalding Hoophall Classic isn’t going to send VASJ tumbling down the rankings – especially this week.
12. (14) Cardinal Gibbons (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.), 22-0The Chiefs remained unbeaten Sunday night with a 73-52 win over Hallandale.
13. (15) Greensboro Day (N.C.), 24-0Quite frankly, we’ve been wondering how good Greensboro Day is all season long. That answer comes Tuesday when the Bengals take on No. 9 Wesleyan Christian Academy.
14. (3) Wheeler (Marietta, Ga.), 17-2It was a bitter loss for the Wildcats on Monday at the Spalding Hoophall Classic, falling to No. 19 Bishop O’Dowd 79-70. A City of Palms Classic crown (including a win over No. 1 Montverde) goes a long way, so don’t count out Wheeler in the national picture just yet.
15. (21) Garfield (Seattle), 15-0Head coach Ed Haskins and the Bulldogs passed their biggest test of the season Monday night, running away from Metro League rival Rainier Beach late for an 84-67 win. Junior forward
Alphonso Anderson will be trending in the Emerald City after putting up 35 points and 19 rebounds in the victory.
