Malad, Rockland enter new year atop state media polls; Pocatello drops from No. 1

  Published at
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready ...

The holiday break created a bit of a shakeup in this week’s girls state media basketball poll.

Previous No. 1 Pocatello dropped to second in the 5A poll after dropping a pair of games at the East Idaho Holiday tournament. Madison also fell out of the 6A rankings.

Timberlake and Sugar-Salem continue to battle for the top spot in 4A, with Timberlake holding a one-point advantage for No. 1. Teton, South Fremont and Bear Lake round out the top five.

Malad, at 12-1, picked up eight of nine first-place votes to hold onto No. 1 in 3A, while Rockland moved into the top spot in 1A.
