The latest Trib HSSN state girls basketball rankings are a tad different from last week with four changes in the Top 5 and a pair of new No. 1 teams.

The four teams that only lasted one week in the state Top 5 were Nazareth and Upper St. Clair in 6A, Dallas in 5A and Bishop Guilfoyle dropping from the top spot out of the rankings entirely in Class A.

Mt. Lebanon, Pennsbury, Pittston Area and Faith Christian are the new faces in the rankings this week.

Replacing Bishop Guilfoyle on top in Class A is Rochester while District 4 foes Mount Carmel and Southern Columbia flip-flop between No. 1 and 2 this week with the Red Tornado taking over the top spot.
