Girls Basketball LebCo Power Rankings

While there were not any changes to the local rankings this week, it was a mixed bag of results from our LebCo teams. Some strengthed their positions ahead of Districts, while others are right on the bubble ahead of the final regular season games.

Boys Basketball LebCo Power Rankings

While Cedar Crest wrapped up Section 1, they remained the top LebCo team again this week. New Covenant continues to climb in the rankings, as they make a strong push to return to Districts. After Annville’s thrilling win over Mount Carmel last week, it will be worth watching whether or not they can hang onto the last remaining spot.

1) Cedar Crest (Last Week – #1)

2) ELCO (Last Week – #2)

3) New Covenant (Last Week – #4)

4) Palmyra (Last Week – #3)

5) Annville-Cleona (Last Week – #6)

6) Northern Lebanon (Last Week – #5)

7) Lebanon (Last Week – #7)

8) Our Lady of the Cross (new to list)
