A busy week of district semifinals and championship games began with a lengthy and strong wind storm across the state.
Perhaps it is the wind of change.
While there were no changes to this week’s Trib HSSN boys basketball state rankings and little movement overall within the five ranked teams, that might not be the case moving forward.
Eventually, the PIAA playoffs will force change, but this week in the district postseason, there are several head-to-head and potential head-to-head games between ranked teams.
In Class 6A, Roman Catholic and LaSalle College are scheduled to meet in the District 12 title game, and Abington and Coatesville could face each other in the District 1 final.
The same thing is true in Class 5A, where Mastery Charter North will face Archbishop Wood in the District 12 championship game. Mars could square off with Moon in the WPIAL title game.
In Class 4A, another District 12 title game is set between ranked teams when Imhotep Charter meets Monsignor Bonner/Archbishop Prendergast.
Here is the PIAA top five in each of the six classifications for the week of Feb. 25:
