APRIL 25TH
1) Grants - Auto/DC 16) Bernalillo - At-Large/D3P
2) Valley - Auto/DC 15) Portales - At-Large/D3P
3) St. Pius X - At-Large/DRUP 14) Pojoaque Valley - At-Large/DRUP
4) Goddard - Auto/DC 13) Valencia - At-Large/D4P
5) Belen - At-Large/D3P 12) Aztec - At-Large/D3P
6) Santa Teresa - Auto/DC 11) Miyamura - At-Large/DRUP
7) Albuquerque Academy - At-Large DRUP 10) Bloomfield - Auto/DC
8) Los Alamos - Auto/DC 9) Artesia - At-Large/DRUP

Scoop: Biggest snub today would be Hope Christian. The Huskies need some help this week from district leaders Academy and Valley. Bernalillo sits at 3-3 with two games left --- the two leaders. Hope Christian will finish the season with a pair of games against district cellar Del Norte. They could sneak in but they need help.

Automatic Bids: Grants and Los Alamos have secured the district championships as of Tuesday. Bloomfield moved into first place and it will only improve their position. Goddard-Artesia and Deming-Santa Teresa will be in a battle this week to secure the automatic bids.

WEEK 9 - APRIL 18TH
#1 Grants - Auto/DC vs #16 Hope Christian - At-Large/D4P
#2 St. Pius X - At-Large/DRUP vs #15 Bernalillo - At-Large/D3P
#3 Goddard - Auto/DC vs 14 Pojoaque Valley - At-Large/DRUP
#4 Valley - Auto/DC vs #13 Bloomfield - At-Large/D3P
#5 Belen - At-Large/D3P vs #12 Aztec - At-Large/DRUP
#6 Santa Teresa - Auto/DC vs #11 Kirtland Central - Auto/DC
#7 Artesia - At-Large/DRUP vs #10 Valencia - At-Large/D4P
#8 Los Alamos - Auto/DC vs #9 Albuquerque Academy - At-Large/DRUP

Changes: Bernalillo beating Hope Christian and taking the lead in the current standings shifted things for the Huskies. They could be in jeopardy of missing the tournament.

Back to Normal: St. Pius X and Belen moved back ahead of Valencia. Last week the Jaguars took advantage of an upset win over SPX to move into the top-8 slots.
