23. (NR) Paul VI (Fairfax, Va.) (18-2)With all the early-season attention going to No. 8 Gonzaga and No. 24 DeMatha, Paul VI remains as the lone unbeaten in Washington Catholic Athletic Conference play.
24. (NR) Scotlandville (Baton Rouge, La.) (26-2)A win over then-No. 16 Westbury Christian (Houston) on Saturday night added to an already-impressive resume for the Hornets that includes wins over St. Augustine (New Orleans) and a 17-3 Hall (Little Rock, Ark.) squad. One of Scotlandville's losses came against No. 8 Southwind in November.
25. (9) DeMatha (Hyattsville, Md.) (17-3)It's been a disappointing two-week stretch for the Stags, but it took a 3-pointer at the buzzer for No. 23 Paul VI to knock them off Friday night. DeMatha will get a chance to avenge two of its losses – against Gonzaga on Feb. 10 and Paul VI on Feb. 19.
