SMITHFIELD – The top teams in 4A girls and boys basketball still reside in Northern Utah in the latest RPI standings released by the Utah High School Activities Association. On Monday, the UHSAA rankings revealed that the Sky View boys basketball team (13-2) and Ridgeline girls basketball team (15-0) remain the #1 teams in the state for their classification. Region 11 claims the top three spots, overall, in 4A girls basketball with Sky View (10-4) and Green Canyon (10-3) ranked 2nd and 3rd, respectively. It’s not much different in the boys standings with three of the top four coming from Region 11, with Ridgeline (11-3) ranked 3rd and Bear River (10-5) ranked 4th (despite Logan claiming a better record in region play).
There hasn’t been much movement in the RPI for Region 11 teams since the inaugural rankings were released in mid-December. The Sky View boys remain the top team but the Sky View girls dropped to second behind the undefeated Riverhawks, who opened as the 2nd ranked team. The Ridgeline, Bear River and Green Canyon boys teams all moved up one spot while Logan and Mountain Crest remain the same. In girls basketball, Green Canyon, Mountain Crest, Bear River and Logan all remain at the same position of the inaugural rankings of the season.
