Aggregate state boys basketball rankings Jan. 30
Normally, I wait until Thursday to post these rankings as I like to wait and see if the Associated Press will ever release a state rankings of its own.
But that ain’t happening this year.
So here are the updated aggregate state basketball rankings for boys teams.
These rankings are made up of seven different state rankings: RPI, Tacoma News Tribune, Seattle Times, MaxPreps (which is different from RPI), Score Czar, Evans Rankings and The Columbian. We put them together into an aggregate ranking, based off a 10-9-8-etc voting system.
Here’s what they looked like for boys rankings in Class 4A through 1A. Only seven votes were cast in 2A and 1A as the Seattle Times does not rank teams in those classes.

2. Richland (1) 59
3. Skyview 51

(x-note. I had to disregard the WIAA’s RPI ranking of Upper Columbia Academy at No. 2. UCA is a 1A school that does not play varsity basketball and is listed with a 2-0 win-loss mark, according to the WIAA’s RPI).
