HS: Winter, Spring FAB 50 rankings, Feb. 26
Just because the seasons are finished in five of the seven winter-playing states, it does not mean those teams' current rankings is final.
In fact, the girls No. 1 team might not be determined until April.
But one thing is for certain, one of the current Top 4 teams will finish in the No. 1 spot. Tompkins (Texas) remains No. 1, followed by California powerhouses JSerra and Davis. If those teams falter, current No. 4 Montverde Academy (Fla.) will be in position to add a girls FAB 50 title to its stockpile of boys national crowns.
On the boys side, three teams have secured final Top 10 rankings -- Houston Episcopal (Texas), Montverde Academy (Fla.) and St. Paul's (La.). St. Paul's defeated rival New Orleans Jesuit (La.) 3-0 in the state final over the weekend. St. Paul's final ranking won't be determined until after the California teams finished regional play this week.
Now, on with the rankings ...
