Team of the Week
Top-ranked Nathan Hale (Seattle) held off an upset bid from regionally ranked Rainier Beach, 88-84, to win the Class 3A SeaKing district championship. Top-rated recruit Michael Porter Jr. (a Washington commit) led the Raiders with 44 points. Nathan Hale is now 7-0 in games against current or formerly ranked teams this season.

Worth Noting
Four-star senior guard Brad Davison (Wisconsin) had a triple-double with 29 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists as regionally ranked Maple Grove (Minn.) defeated Totino-Grace, 80-69. … The first state champions of the season were crowned in Hawaii, where Kahuku earned its first-ever Division I title with a 70-55 win against Punahou (Hawaii). Tournament MVP Samuta Avea (a Hawaii recruit) led Kahuku with 20 points and 11 rebounds.

For the Record
Mason Blair of Johnson Central (Paintsville, Ky.) set his state’s single-season record for 3-pointers with 145. Blair made six 3-pointers in a 45-point outburst that keyed a 90-81 win over Tates Creek. One week earlier, senior Dylan James of Sheldon Clark (Inez) became Kentucky’s all-time leader in3-pointers made. James’ current total is 460 career 3-pointers.

About the PrepNation National Prep Poll
The PrepNation National Prep Poll is a continuation of World Feature Syndicate’s National Prep Poll, which was published and distributed to the Associated Press and other news organizations from 1987 to 2015.

The National Prep Poll is second only to the USA Today Super 25 as the longest continually published weekly high school rankings. While a product of World Features Syndicate (1987-2015), the National Prep Poll was the only high school poll distributed to newspapers and websites around the United States by the Associated Press.

Before authoring rankings for Student Sports and ESPN, National High School Sports Hall of Fame journalist Doug Huff compiled the National Prep Poll rankings from 1987 until 1999. Current author Jamie DeMoney has compiled the poll since the start of the 1999 basketball season to the present.

Among the criteria used in the weekly compilation of the National Prep Poll rankings are strength of schedule, the ability to accomplish the ultimate goal on a team's schedule (i.e. winning a championship), impact players and performers, a team's coaching and recent tradition.
