Minimal movement this week as 11 of the 15 teams occupy the same spots they did last week. St. Joseph Notre Dame and Monte Vista swapped at the 9 and 10 spots. The Mustangs do own a head-to-head win over the Pilots, but that was almost two months ago now and the nearly 30-point loss to De La Salle was enough to drop Monte Vista one spot. Dublin falls out of the poll and out of the voting completely after an 0-2 week. That moves El Cerrito up a spot and welcomes Granada into the poll. The Matadors own a win over Skyline, which is a big reason they get the edge over the Titans.

Here’s our latest poll. Very little movement again. Castro Valley jumps up two spots after it beat San Lorenzo by 20 points, two days after the Rebels handed San Leandro a loss. That loss for the Pirates, along with them getting taken to overtime by Mt. Eden, dropped San Leandro all the way to No. 12. St. Joe’s moves up two spots and Freedom and Liberty stay put despite losses to Deer Valley. Dublin also stays put after a loss to Campolindo and El Cerrito debuts in the poll after taking charge of the ACCAL with a buzzer-beating win over Berkeley.
