With many teams easing into the Holidays with just a single game last week, there wasn’t a lot of movement at the top of this week’s Girls’ Power Rankings. Westlake – the first team to win 20 games this year -- Glenn, Vandegrift and Liberty Hill all posted solid wins to maintain their spots. Austin High’s dominant win over Dripping Springs, however, not only moved the Lady Maroons into the Top 10 at #9, it also allowed Round Rock, Rouse and Bowie to move up.
Austin High’s big move also bumped 4A New Tech and 5A Crockett down through no fault of their own, while Cedar Ridge climbed two spots after Hays and Weiss split their week.
The Power Rankings are still in flux heading into one more round of tournaments for most teams. Keep an eye on traditional powers Cedar Park and Georgetown. Neither have cracked the rankings yet, but both may have found their stride now that district play is here.
With a smattering of games on tap before Christmas, here’s where things stand.
