Shakeups in latest prep polls

by John Raby

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLESTON -- Call it Moving Monday.

Two of the three top-ranked teams in The Associated Press boys state high school basketball poll dropped out of the top spot Monday after losses last week.

In Class AAA, Woodrow Wilson moved up from No. 2 after last week's No. 1 team, Parkersburg South, lost to Wheeling Park.

Parkersburg South, which will visit Robert C. Byrd Wednesday, is now tied for second with unbeaten Riverside, which moved up from third. Wheeling Park improved one spot to fourth, Capital is fifth and Hedgesville jumped to sixth from eighth.

East Fairmont, tied for ninth last week with Fairmont Senior, improved to seventh despite not playing last week. It was followed by No. 8 North Marion, No. 9 George Washington and No. 10 Fairmont Senior.

In Class A, Charleston Catholic moved back into the No. 1 spot it occupied two weeks earlier before being knocked out by Wheeling Central, which lost twice and dropped to No. 2 this week.

In Class AA, Tug Valley and Bluefield remained Nos. 1 and 2, respectively.
