What we learned: Brownsburg showcase features top teams, players

The IBCA poll is a "non-class" poll, with the top-20 teams ranked regardless of classification. The voting body consists of one voter from each of the 16 regionals, three at-large voters (one each from IHSAA districts 1-3) and the committee chair, Northridge's Doug Springer.

Here is this week's poll. Teams are listed with 1st-place votes in parentheses, followed by points, record and previous ranking.
