MHSAA Mid Season Basketball Rankings

MHSAA Mid Season Rankings

The following rankings are compiled by records taken from SB Live and MaxPreps. Losses to out of state opponents do not count against you in this ranking. MaxPreps strength of schedule is also a big factor used in this system. This rankings is for games played to this point of the season and will not reflect what I think will happen in the playoffs or the second half of the season. OOS is Out Of State.
