It’s more of the same to round out the rest of the Top 10, where the only change is Vista Ridge moving up a spot over Bowie after the Lady Dawgs’ aforementioned loss to Drip.
The real action is at the bottom of the Rankings. Hays stays put at #11 despite their loss to #4 Leander, while Round Rock remains at #12. Gateway Prep continues to be the highest-ranked 4A squad, moving up a spot after two dominant wins. Then it’s Austin LASA debuting at #14 after knocking off the Bastrop Lady Bears earlier in the week.
With Easter in the rearview mirror, here are the Rankings head into the final two-plus weeks of the regular season.
