There were no drastic falls during the final week of the 2025 WPIAL basketball regular season, but there were some slips here and there in preparation for the Path to the Pete.
There were some adjustments as some teams dropped and some rose up in the latest Trib 10 power rankings, but all 10 teams stood firm in heading into the postseason still on our weekly list.
However, we have reached the time of year when slipping or dropping could lead to a season-ending result. The consolation round safety net is bigger for some classes than others.
As far as No. 1, there were no changes as the Montour boys and South Fayette girls remain on top of the power rankings this week.
Here are the latest Trib 10 basketball power rankings with overall records and last week’s ranking. These rankings have zero classification boundaries.
