The battle for top spots took a turn to the west this past week in the latest Trib HSSN boys basketball rankings.

A week ago, District 12 had three No. 1 teams atop the state rankings; however, with Roman Catholic slipping to No. 2 behind Upper St. Clair in 6A and 2024 PIAA champion Aliquippa back on top in 3A, District 7 now owns the most top spots with three as Neighborhood Academy remains on top in Class A.

Four teams dropped from the Top 5 this past week.

Replacing Hershey in 5A, Avonworth in 4A, Holy Cross in 3A and Lincoln Leadership Academy Charter School in A are Upper Dublin, Allentown Central Catholic, Taylor Riverside and Chester Charter School Academy.
