There was some slicing and dicing in this week’s Trib 10 as championship weekend is set for The Pete.

From quarterfinals weekend through the final four, three boys team and two girls teams saw their district championship hopes end and a spot in the power rankings slip away.

However, all is not lost for those five teams. While their Path to the Pete was not complete, some of them will get a second chance to resurface in our weekly rankings in the upcoming PIAA basketball playoffs.

Here are the latest rankings. Teams are listed with record and last week’s ranking. These rankings have zero classification boundaries.
