After Shalhevet's win over Valley Torah, the Firehawks jumped five spots to share the #1 ranking with the Wolfpack. It was believed to be the closest vote in the poll's 12 years, with five teams garnering first-place votes and all separated by just eight points.

TABC returns to the Top 25 (which was the Top 27 a week ago) and two of the three teams that hung on by a thread last week - North Shore HA and Berman HA - dropped out.
