Dallas County High, the other local team ranked, rose from sixth to fifth in Class 4A after falling at Bibb County. The Hornets (9-2) have been ranked in every poll this season.

Two other Dallas County teams did not crack the poll, but were nominated.

Morgan Academy (7-7) was nominated for the AISA Top 10 poll.

The Southside Lady Panthers (7-2) were nominated for the Class 3A girls poll. Southside knocked off crosstown rival Selma 49-41 last week. It was the rare time Southside beat Selma in girls basketball.
