John Wall (PG,6’4″, 2009) had led Word of God to a number eight national ranking before their loss to Dudley (Greensboro, NC).
Here’s where the South region schools fall in place, according to USA Today:
1. Oak Hill, Mouth of Wilson, VA
2. Arlington Country Day, Jacksonville, FL
3. Leflore, Mobile, AL
4. Duncanville, Texas
5. Word of God Academy, Raleigh, NC
6. Wheeler, Marietta, GA
7. Christ School, Arden, NC
8. South Atlanta, Atlanta, GA
9. Callaway, Jackson, Miss.
10. Montverde Academy, Montverde, FL
Number one ranked team in the nation is still Lance Stephenson (SF, 6’6″, 2009) and Lincoln out of Brooklyn.
fyi Ryan Kelly plays for Ravenscroft, not Word of God. Wall and Kelly did play together on the same AAU team this summer though.
You’re right, I’ve updated it to correct it. That’s what I get for writing posts in the wee hours of the morning.
