An early look at the top teams in each classification
Preseason Statewide Girls Basketball Coaches Polls
OSAAtoday is thrilled to present preseason statewide Girls Basketball Coaches Polls for the 2021-2022 season in all classifications. Thanks to all the coaches who took the time and had the expertise to contribute their opinions to this endeavor.
Look for the polls every Monday during the winter season, starting with Dec. 6.
Please note: these polls are for generating interest and discussion only and have no impact on the OSAA’s RPI and Colley ratings that form the basis of the OSAA’s rankings for playoff purposes.
