Week 2 Basketball Rankings

In Class AAAAAAA, No. 1 McEachern and No. 2 Norcross are off to 3-0 starts. Grayson improved from No. 5 to No. 3 after opening up the season with an 88-33 win over Jackson and a 74-53 win over Berkmar. The Patriots’ 19-point loss dropped them from No. 4 to No. 8.
Lanier and Allatoona replaced Brunswick and Gainesville in the Class AAAAAA top 10 after Brunswick’s 1-2 start and Gainesville’s 0-2 start. Lithonia took over No. 1 in Class AAAAA and former No. 1 Fayette County dropped to No. 5 following losses to Newton (88-78) and East Coweta (79-70). Also, Hiram makes its debut at No. 4 after a blazing 3-0 start and Cedar Shoals debuts at No. 10 after Buford and Warner Robins exited the poll.
In Class AAAA, the top 3 remained intact with No. 1 Woodward Academy, No. 2 Denmark and No. 3 Sandy Creek, but former fourth-ranked Carver-Columbus dropped out of poll after a 65-44 loss to Newnan and Cross Creek debuts at No. 10.
Monroe replaced Westside-Macon in the Class AAA poll and debuts at No. 10 and the Class AA rankings did not see changes in the past week. Only three of the 10 teams in the Class A-Public top 10 have started their seasons at this point and the results did not influence the current standing.

Greenforest took over No. 2 in this week’s rankings and Galloway (4-0) comes in at No. 10 after Riverside Military also dropped out after a 1-2 start.
