BOYS BASKETBALL RANKINGS
5A-6A: Stony Point stays at the top and looks like the team to beat in 6A for the region, though I'm sure number 2 San Marcos wants another shot at them. They are coming off a thrilling buzzer beating win over district foe Clemens. Buda Johnson moves into the rankings after handling Westlake and San Antonio Veterans Memorial and New Braunfels jump into the rankings to round out our Top 10. The end of the season should be exciting with a handful of these teams about to play one another.
1A-4A: Boerne and Pleasanton are still the team to beat in district. Pleasanton got the best of Somerset in their first district game but that rematch will be one to watch. Meanwhile Nixon-Smiley finds themselves in the rankings for the first time of the season.
PRIVATE SCHOOL: Antonian jumps over Central Catholic after their head-to-head victory and Regents jumps into the rankings after defeating the previous number 5 Brentwood.
GIRLS BASKETBALL RANKINGS
5A-6A: Clark is still the best in 6A in the region. After that arguments can be made as to who should be where, in my opinion, when talking about 2-7. Austin and San Antonio is that contested. After that Glenn makes their way into the rankings sitting at 21-4 on the season.
1A-4A: Boerne jumps over Fredericksburg after their head-to-head win and that rematch will be a must watch. Beeville Jones jumps to 3 and Navarro settles in at 4. They lost to both Boerne and Fredericksburg and will look to try and exact some payback in the 2nd half of district. But if you're asking me now Boerne and Fredericksburg are a step above and should contend for a title this year.
PRIVATE SCHOOL: Antonian Prep stays at number 1 and Geneva jumps into the 2 spot. Other than that no change in the teams in the top 5, just their placement.
Smaller Schools posting BIG Results!
Big Athletes & Big Performances from some local "smaller school" UIL girls basketball teams!! As defined by UIL, 4A schools are considered smaller schools, but we should still expect BIG results from these teams. We are following along with some of the areas top performing girls basketball teams that are making big strides on the court this year.
Boerne High School
With a stacked preseason schedule full of notable 5A & 6A schools, the Boerne Greyhounds have had a stellar start to the season. Coming out of preseason with a 12-2 record, only dropping to the undefeated 6A Clark High school and a notable 6A Georgetown High School team we expect a deep run for this 4A program! High scoring games have allowed the Greyhounds to win big in a lot of games so far this season, and they continue to be successful on defense as well. Last year's District MVP as only a freshman, Jamie Ruede, is helping lead this Greyhound team along with Jessica Davila and Jordyn Lemm. Last year they advanced to the Regional Quarterfinals, but based on the start to the season we see them going further this year!
