Welcome to the first edition of the Trib 10 power rankings for the 2025 high school basketball season.

It’s a weekly look at the top teams from around the district with absolutely no classification boundaries.

A year ago, Lincoln Park began and ended the season as the Trib 10 boys basketball top team.

On the girls side, Blackhawk finished No. 1 in the power rankings.

The first edition of the power rankings this season has two Class 5A teams on top with Montour at No. 1 on the boys side and Peters Township on top for the girls.

We will update every Thursday.

Here are the Trib 10 basketball power rankings with overall records from this season followed by where that team was ranked last year.
