MaxPreps Xcellent 25 National Basketball Rankings presented by the Army National Guard

1. (No. 3 last week) Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.), 32-0 *
Those that remember a nationally televised loss to Hamilton (Memphis, Tenn.) are not dreaming. That result was overturned via forfeit late last week, giving Oak Hill Academy a perfect record once again. The Warriors built on that news Saturday night by beating No. 8 Cape Henry Collegiate 81-76 in double overtime.

2. (1) Montverde Academy (Fla.), 23-1
Vaulting Oak Hill Academy past Montverde Academy was a tough choice. The Eagles have wins over eight teams that have appeared in the national rankings this season and dominated Tampa Prep 77-42 over the weekend.

3. (4) Findlay Prep (Henderson, Nev.), 18-1
Overcoming the loss of injured junior forward Justin Jackson, the Pilots survived 50-49 against local rival Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas) on Saturday.

4. (6) Sierra Canyon (Chatsworth, Calif.), 14-1
No. 17 Fairfax (Saturday) and No. 1 Oak Hill Academy (Feb. 6) remain on the regular season schedule for the Trailblazers.

5. (13) Greensboro Day (N.C.), 26-0
The Bengals added a signature victory to their impressive resume last Tuesday by beating No. 13 Wesleyan Christian Academy 56-48.
