Combine Academy still tops NC prep basketball boys poll. But who’s No. 1 in girls, football?

Combine Academy remains No. 1 in the Charlotte Observer/News & Observer N.C. high school boys basketball rankings. Charlotte Christian is No. 1 in the final football ranking of the season, and is the rankings champion.

This week, we introduce our girls rankings.

To be considered, a school must be part of a recognized N.C. state association and/or have on-campus learning available. The Charlotte Observer Sweet 16 poll will return in January, and public school teams will be added to this statewide poll at that time.

N.C. High School Athletic Association teams start practice next month and begin practice in January.
