The Gazette/Iowa Prep Sports boys' basketball poll

Some turmoil in this week's edition.

Dubuque Senior is your new number one in Class 4A after an impressive 68-47 smackdown of Iowa City West last Friday night. The Rams (8-0) ended West's 60-game win streak and sent the Trojans (9-1) to No. 4 in the latest poll.

West rebounded a day later with a nice win over Sun Prairie (Wis.) in a tournament at Wisconsin Dells, Wis. Bettendorf remains second in 4A, with fellow unbeaten North Scott moving up a slot to third.

Cedar Rapids Kennedy (7-1) is a first-time entrant at No. 10.

The Class 3A poll remains exactly the same, other than LeMars moving up from 10th to ninth and Sioux City Heelan sliding back in at No. 10. Harlan remains top ranked.

In 2A, Western Christian (9-0) stays on top, with Cascade jumping from fourth to second. Second-ranked Fort Dodge St. Edmond and No. 3 Carroll Kuemper both lost last week, falling to seventh and eighth, respectively.

Still a lot of undefeated clubs in Class 1A, with the top five remaining the same, led by No. 1 Newell-Fonda (10-0). Ar-We-Va (11-0) inches into the 10th spot.
