The hardwood heated up last week across the state of Oklahoma in high school hoops action. Check out the latest boys and girls rankings and read about the shakeups and shifts from the past week in this week’s Rankings Remix.

Class 6A:


Boys: Union was the week's big mover, cashing in an impressive 74-51 victory over Muskogee to help propel the Redskins up three slots to fourth. Meanwhile, Putnam City continued to struggle, falling to 7-8 on the season with losses to Yukon and Edmond Santa Fe while slipping three positions to eighth. Putnam North dropped decisions to Mustang and Putnam West and fell from the poll along with Bixby, which fell to Muskogee and Broken Arrow. Those losses opened the door for Del City to return to the rankings at number nine with an 8-4 mark while Putnam West also joined the poll for the first time at 10th with a 7-5 record.

Girls: There was little movement at the top, but Jenks continued its surge, moving up to sixth after a perfect week, swapping slots with Norman North, a 50-41 loser at the hands of third-rated Edmond Memorial. Del City and Stillwater each suffered losses to Midwest City and McGuinness respectively, but held firm at ninth and 10th.

Class 5A:


Boys: Ardmore's struggles continued as the Tigers have now lost four of their last six games, including a 55-50 defeat to Lawton Mac, and dropped from second to fourth this week. Tulsa East Central also slid three positions to sixth after a 60-47 setback against Tulsa Central. Those losses opened the door for Northwest Classen, which jumped from fifth to second after a 77-76 overtime triumph over new third-ranked McGuinness. Tulsa Central meanwhile checks in fifth. Guthrie is back in the Top 10 at the eighth spot following a 45-38 win against El Reno, which slips one position to ninth. Shawnee also checks in at No. 10 with a 10-3 record after dumping previous number 10 Carl Albert, 79-68.

Girls: Western Heights leveled at 7-7 on the season with a 43-38 loss to Deer Creek and drops two positions to eighth in this week's poll.

Class 4A:


Boys: Cascia Hall moves up one notch to seventh and unbeaten Roland climbs two positions to eighth. Those jumps were aided by Piedmont losing to Western Heights, 46-43, to slide two positions to ninth while Tulsa McLain fell to Booker T. Washington, 67-43, and dropped one slot to No. 10. This week's rankings newcomer is 9-4 Bristow, which capitalized on a 36-34 victory against Mannford to move into 14th while Mannford slips two notches to number 15. Harrah fell out of the poll after losing to El Reno, 76-37.

Girls: Cache held onto to number one after a thrilling 56-55 victory over Anadarko, but despite the loss, Anadarko climbs one position to fourth, swapping places with Weatherford.

There were several shifts in the lower third of the rankings as Nowata improved to 10-1 and climbs four positions to No. 11 after losses by Purcell, Seq. Tahlequah, Lincoln Christian and Coalgate.

Girls: It was business as usual in the Top 10 as the only loss amongst the bunch came from Northeast, which fell to Class 2A's No. 1 Millwood, 56-49, but still held at seventh. Sulphur's surprising 46-31 defeat against rival Davis caused some shakeups in the lower third of the rankings as the Lady Bulldogs fell four positions to 15th.

Girls: Red Oak holds firmly at number three despite a 37-31 loss to 2A Howe.
