5A BASKETBALL

1. Hobbs Eagles (6-0 overall, 2-0 district)
2. Volcano Vista Hawks (7-0 overall, 5-0 district)
3. Centennial Hawks (7-0 overall, 7-0 district)
4. Los Lunas Tigers (6-1 overall, 6-0 district)
5. Eldorado (3-1 overall, 3-1 district)
6. La Cueva Bears (4-1 overall, 4-1 district)
7. Sandia Matadors (4-2 overall, 4-2 district)
8. Farmington Scorpions (6-2 overall, 4-2 district)
9. Onate Knights (5-1 overall, 5-1 district)
10. Mayfield Trojans (4-2 overall, 4-2 district)

Quick Scoop: Onate is the newbie in the top-10 this week for 5A hoops. They have a buzzer-beating loss to No 3 Centennial and then beat Mayfield last week. Dark Horse if I've ever seen one. Los Lunas did a leapfrog as district 2-5A plays musical chairs.

4A BASKETBALL

1. Highland Hornets (5-1 overall, 4-0 district)
2. Gallup Bengals (5-0 overall, 3-0 district)
3. Kirtland Central Broncos (3-1 overall, 2-1 district)
4. Portales Rams (4-1 overall, 2-0 district)
5. Espanola Valley Sundevils (7-1 overall, 3-0 district)
6. Hope Christian Huskies (6-1 overall, 4-0 district)
7. Bernalillo Spartans (7-1 overall, 3-1 district)
8. Goddard Rockets (4-2 overall, 1-1 district)
9. St. Pius X Sartans (5-1 overall, 3-1 district)
10. Miyamura Patriots (2-3 overall, 1-2 district)

Scoop: Portales falls a few spots but that loss to Hobbs shouldn't mean a thing as most or any team will lose like that to Hobbs. Gallup and Kirtland Central hanging around the 3-4 and that's a normal thing. Espanola playing well, Hope Christian takes the lead beating Bearnlillo and Goddard dropped one spot after losing to Roswell. Miyamura is the only team under .500 but looks at their schedule, three losses come to Gallup, Kirtland, and Farmington. However, now they need to take care of Shiprock and Bloomfield.
