Brian Collier and Grandview are looking to bounce back this week

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Officially at the halfway point in the season, the tournament picture is beginning to get a little clearer. Let's take a look at our latest power rankings in Division III and IV.


Division III

1. Harvest Prep (9-2) - Harvest Prep got back to normal by pummeling Millersport last week before Saturday's matchup against Fisher Catholic was snowed out. The Warriors will hit the road to take on rival Wellington on Friday.

2. Columbus Academy (8-3) - Columbus Academy made a statement by going on the road and punking Johnstown last week. The Vikings can keep it rolling with home matchups against Horizon Science and No. 9 Wellington this week.

3. Johnstown (7-1) - The Johnnies are still unbeaten in the LCL but suffered its first loss last week. Johnstown won't return home for quite some time as they'll play at Zane Trace, Granville and Heath this week.

4. Fairbanks (9-1) - The best kept secret in Division III, Fairbanks has won nine out of its first 10 games and have a statement week coming up. Fairbanks can pick up a statement win at No. 7 Worthington Christian on Tuesday before hitting the road to play Benjamin Logan and Greeneview to end the week.

5. West Jefferson (10-2) - The Roughriders went 2-0 in league play last week and will look to keep rolling against Elgin and Springfield Central Catholic this week. West Jefferson could be a sleeper come tournament time.

6. Pleasant (9-2) - Pleasant picked up two great wins last week against Mount Gilead and Ontario, the latter being one of its best of the year. The Spartans will hit the road to take on Galion before ending its week against Marion Harding. 

7. Worthington Christian (8-4) - Suffering a tough loss to Bexley on Saturday, Worthington Christian will look to bounce back this week with two ranked matchups against Fairbanks and Granview Heights. The Warriors can do a lot for its tournament resume this week.

8. Grandview Heights (7-4) - With Luke Lachey hopefully rejoining the rotation soon, Grandview Heights will need to continue to survive without its 6-foot-6 junior stud. The Bobcats will head to Westland on Tuesday before hosting Worthington Christian to end the week.

9. Wellington (6-4) - The Jags have quietly rolled along as of late but will get a mega test this week in back to back days against top-ranked Harvest Prep and Columbus Academy. We'll see just how ready Wellington is for big-time basketball in Division III.

10. Africentric (5-5) - In the midst of a brutal stretch, Africentric has dropped its last three games. The Nubians can get back on track with home matchups against Briggs and Marion-Franklin before hitting the road to play at Cincinnati Woodward on Saturday.
