Latest state basketball rankings

With the start of the state tournament now about 18 days away, perhaps some don't really care about these rankings. But it is interesting to see who's out there for our teams once we get through districts.

Note Saucon Valley breaks through at No. 10 in 3A. Thanks to Michael Bullock of the Harrisburg Patriot-News for sending along:
