NW Ohio High School Hoops Power Rankings
Presented by @CoachDarrenK
2/8/16 – Poll #6
#1 Lima Senior
The Spartans continue to roll in their quest for a perfect regular season, 18-0.
#2 St John’s
The Titans have cruised past 5 in a row and face old City League foe Rogers this week before finishing up TRAC play.
#3 Whitmer
Can the Panthers use their depth to give Lima Senior their first loss this week before facing Perrysburg on back to back nights.
#4 Northview
Northview can lock up the NLL race with two wins this week.
#5 (tie) Central Catholic
The Irish appear to be better than the Knights on paper, but St Francis rolled in the first meeting – rematch is Friday to settle this. CCHS may have the toughest remaining schedule in this poll.
#5 (tie) St. Francis
Coleman– Graham is playing well. Can the Knights win out their remaining 3 games to avoid having a losing TRAC record.
#7 Napolean
Lauf and company are having a nice year but a light non-conference slate has not benefitted the Wildcats in closing out tight NLL match-ups.
#8 Scott
The Bulldogs are peaking at the right time and may slip in to steal the City League from Rogers.
#9 Rogers
The Rams have dropped two straight league games after starting off 7-0. They have a tough task of trying to right the ship Tuesday at St. John’s.
#10 (tie) Ottawa Hills
The Green Bears are 15-1 thus far but a win vs Swanton, whom may be the toughest team on their schedule, would help legitimize this ranking.
#10 (tie) Swanton
The Bulldogs have won 9 straight but likely won’t win their league. They must beat Ottawa Hills on the road to hope to remain in the poll.
Big Win of the Week – Waite and Coach Rodriguez over Rogers
Northern Buckeye (8), Northern Lakes League (8), Northwest Ohio (9), TRAC (8), Toledo Area, (8) Toledo City (6) – 47 total teams considered
