Week 1 WisSports.net Boys Basketball Coaches Poll

Division 1

The top of the Division 1 Coaches Poll looks pretty similar to the last rankings prior to the Christmas break, as Oshkosh North further solidified its top spot with an impressive showing at the WBY Shootout that included victories over Arrowhead and Milwaukee Riverside. Stevens Point is still #2, and hopes to get star junior Joey Hauser back soon. Menomonee Falls, Muskego, and Oak Creek are new teams to this week's poll.

Division 2

Defending champion Kaukauna dropped a pair of games since the last rankings came out, as the Galloping Ghosts fell from #1 to #3. Waunakee narrowly took over the top spot, though four different teams earned at least one first place vote. That included second-ranked La Crosse Central, who topped Kaukauna at the WBY Shootout and probably would have been #1 if not for a one-point loss to Pius XI Catholic the next day. Pius made a big jump from #9 to #4.

Division 3

Ripon is the strong favorite atop the Division 3 Coaches Poll, as the trio of Bennett Vander Plas, Eddie Muensch, and Melvin Lee is hard to stop, averaging 58 points per game between them. Unbeatens Lake Mills, Xavier, and Westby follow closely behind, while Bloomer and Clintonville break into the poll this week at #8 and #9 respectively.

Division 4

Destiny is a unanimous #1 selection in the Division 4 rankings, with the top five unchanged from before the break. Darlington, The Prairie School, Laconia, and Young Coggs Prep round out that top five. Unbeaten Cochrane-Fountain City is the only new team this week at #10, just edging out Edgar and Kenosha St. Joseph for the final spot.

Division 5

Barneveld once again gets a slight edge over Shullsburg for the #1 position in the Division 5 poll, with Columbus Catholic and McDonell Central right behind. Hilbert edged ahead of Bangor for the #6 position, while Gresham's win over Almond-Bancroft helped them jump up one spot.
