Greenville is the new No. 1 girls basketball team in the Class A public-school division after Telfair County, the previous No. 1, lost to Wilcox County on Saturday.
Greenville, led by state player-of-the-year candidate Brittany Davis, beat 10th-ranked Marion County 68-58 and then cruised past Brookstone and Callaway by a combined score of 169-52 last week to improve to 16-1. The Patriots moved up from the No. 2 spot, while Telfair County dropped to No. 2.
Wilcox County jumped from No. 9 to No. 6 after earning a season split with Telfair.
The biggest mover of the week was Banks County, which climbed from No. 6 to No. 2 in Class AA. The Leopards picked up victories against Putnam County and Rabun County, the No. 3 and No. 4 teams last week, and routed Oglethorpe County to improve to 16-3 and move into sole possession of first place in 8-AA, one of the state’s toughest regions.
There were few changes in the three highest classifications. All three No. 1 teams – Westlake in AAAAAAA, Lovejoy in AAAAAA and Buford in AAAAA – remained the same, and only one new team moved into the top 10. Hillgrove replaced North Cobb in the No. 9 spot in Class AAAAAAA after beating the Warriors 51-34 on Wednesday.
Joining Hillgrove as new members of the top 10s were Sonoraville, which replaced Peach County in AAA; Bryan County, which replaced St. Vincent’s Academy in AA; and Eagle’s Landing Christian, which replaced Paideia in the Class A private-school division.
Carver-Columbus (AAAA), Greater Atlanta Christian (AAA), Laney (AA) and Holy Innocents’ (A private) remained the other No. 1 teams.
