The Trojans carry some impressive streaks into the stretch run of the regular season. Olympic has won 52 regular season games against conference foes in a row and 31 straight at home.
12. (12) Iowa City West (Iowa), 13-0After a close call last weekend against Sun Prairie (Wis.), the Trojans responded by thrashing Keokuk by 43 points and Waterloo East by 44.
13. (13) Midwest City (Okla.), 13-0Like Iowa City West, the Bombers were in blowout mode last week with a 79-28 win over Southmoore and a 91-50 victory over Del City.
14. (14) Pershing (Detroit), 12-0The Doughboys trailed by 18 points but rallied for an 81-74 win over Monte Morris and Beecher on Friday. Pershing has trailed in the second half in three of its last four outings.
15. (NR) Math Civics & Sciences (Philadelphia), 16-0We would have looked like geniuses if we had taken a "keep an eye on us" email from the MC&S coaching staff a little more seriously before the season. The Mighty Elephants are on top of the food chain in the Keystone State after an impressive weekend that included double-digit victories over Penn Wood (Lansdowne) and Bass Pro Shops Tournament of Champions winner Paul VI (Fairfax, Va.). MC&S also has impressive wins over South Shore (Brooklyn, N.Y.) and Imhotep Charter (Philadelphia) this season.
