7th Region: Week 1

The first week of the season is over and this is the region to watch all year long as the top three teams are top 5 in the state rankings in most polls and Manual is very good as well and someone that come March could be dangerous. This week we saw two of the top teams in the region face off with Male defeating Trinity very easily in a score that was very surprising 76-58. Male made a statement for sure and I will flip flop Male and Trinity in the rankings for now. let's get to the rankings and how the week played out.
