The best boys basketball teams in Central Illinois continued to beat up on each other last week, unless, however, you’re Morton, Normal Community or Tri-Valley. Those three teams stood tall among many strong suitors for the top few spots in the Clutch Sports Media Boys Basketball Power Rankings. 


The latest rankings feature three Big 12 teams moving up after strong weeks, plus a significant re-shuffling in the small school rankings, where the top five is completely different from last week’s. 


Games to keep an eye on this week include Manual facing off with Peoria High in a city rivalry on Friday and Morton and East Peoria meeting on Saturday. Clutch Sports Media will be streaming both of those games live as our WMBD Games of the Week on ciproud.com



Teams from the Mid-Illini and Big 12 make up the large school rankings while every other area school falls into the small school category. Teams receiving consideration are listed as well.
