The WIAA state tournament brackets are set with regional seeds as teams await their respective opponents for next week's games. With the final week of the girls hoops regular season comes the final coaches poll of the season as teams will be locked into these rankings until next November. Here are the results:
Week 14 (Final) WSN/WBCA Girls Basketball Coaches Poll

Division 1

There was very little change at the top of Division 1 again this week as Pius, Nicolet and Middleton continued to dominate the poll. Milwaukee Vincent and Racine Case swapped positions again, as they have several times this season, at the No. 4 and 5 spots and Big Rivers foes Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire North fell in at No. 6 and 7 again this week. That pair will clash Friday as the Cardinals hope to earn a split the BRC crown. Another pair of conference rivals in Pulaski and De Pere remained at No. 8 and 9 this week while Oconomowoc rounded out the top 10. Oak Creek's win over Muskego raised the Knights to No. 11 and dropped the Warriors to No. 13 as the SEC teams flanked No. 12 Marshfield. Kettle Moraine finally earned its first ranking of the year at No. 14, just ahead of FVA co-leader Appleton North.

New Arrival: Kettle Moraine (No. 14)
Dropped Out: Brookfield Central

Division 2

Luxemburg-Casco may have dropped its first game of the season to D1 Pulaski, but the Spartans are hoping they can manuever their way to Madison as the top-ranked team in Division 2. New Berlin Eisenhower, Pewaukee, Union Grove and Beaver Dam remained in the top five in that order, while New London once again landed at No. 6 this week. Reedsburg's win over Badger North foe Baraboo paired with a Hayward loss this week lifted the Beavers to No. 8 just behind Milton. The Hurricanes and Thunderbirds meanwhile fell to No. 9 and 10, ahead of Cedarburg at No. 11. Ashland moved up two spots to No. 12 in the final poll while West Bend East and Madison Edgewood returned to surround Notre Dame at No. 14.

New Arrivals: West Bend East (No. 13), Madison Edgewood (No. 15)
Dropped Out: Cudahy, Plymouth

Division 3

Dominican has already clinched the Midwest Classsic South title, the top-ranking in the D3 coaches poll and has but two games remaining on a perfect season. But No. 2 Neillsville also boasts an unblemished record at 21-0 heading into what should be an amazing Cloverbelt Conference Playoff game against Division 4 unbeaten Regis Saturday. Chilton suffered its only loss of the year to Michicot last week and tumbled to No. 5 this week behind former No. 1 Richland Center and Columbus. Edgerton remained safe at No. 6 ahead of Freedom, while Lomira, Winnebago Lutheran and Kewaunee rounded out the top 10 again this week. East Troy jumped back up to No. 11 just votes ahead of Mondovi, while Xavier and D3 returnee Prairie du Chien snuck in ahead of aforementioned Michicot at No. 15.

New Arrival: Prairie du Chien (No. 14)
Dropped Out: Ladysmith

Division 4

As stated above, D4 top-ranked Regis' showdown with Neillsville in the Cloverbelt Crossover should be a doozy as just the third time a No. 1 has battled a No. 2 the entire regular season. Algoma, Oshkosh Lourdes and Colfax remained just off pace in Nos. 2 through 4, while Hurley made a return to the top five ahead of No. 6 Westby. Fennimore, Oostburg, Amherst and Auburndale concluded the final top 10, replacing Shoreland Lutheran and Gillett. The Pacers fell to No. 13 this week after a loss to Dominican while the Tigers lost three in a row to tumble to No. 15. Belleville, Heritage Christian and Osseo-Fairchild also hung on to a top-15 ranking in a division that promises to have a very competitive postseason.

New Arrivals: None
Dropped Out: None

Division 5

It appears that three squads will finish their seasons unbeaten as Newman Catholic, Black Hawk and Seneca all still have 0's in their loss columns. No. 4 Prentice would like to change that on the top-ranked Newman side as they will face the Fighting Cardinals in a Marawood Crossover Championship game this week. Siren and Highland fell in at No. 5 and 6 this week as both teams bring #1-seeds into regional play as well. Almond-Bancroft reached No. 7 this week ahead of Northwood and Independence while Royall rounded out the top 10 in the final poll. Fall River and Marion returned, while Spencer finally broke into the rankings at No. 13 this week ahead of No. 14 Lake Holcombe and fellow newcomer Winter. The Warriors receieved their first ever ranking from the coaches poll this week after an impressive 16-3 campaign with one regular season game remaining.

New Arrivals: Spencer (No. 13), Winter (No. 15)
Dropped Out: Juda, Kickapoo.


NOTE: This will be the last poll of the season. Thank you to all coaches who voted throughout the year and good luck to all in regional play.
