There’s a new No. 1 team in our latest ‘All-NC’ high school basketball rankings
Carmel Christian, a private school from Matthews, is the new No. 1 school in our “All-NC” high school basketball poll.
A perennial power, the Cougars moved from No. 2 to No. 1 after Greensboro Day lost in a holiday tournament last week.
Two new teams join the poll this week: Ardrey Kell and Northside Christian.
