This is a little late, but here are this week’s Idaho and Washington high school basketball polls. Quality wins for the Lewiston girls and Clarkston boys resulted in slightly loftier rankings. And the Colton girls, who saw their almost 2-year-old winning streak snapped at 42 games, still held the top spot in the Washington 1B poll.
This is the final Idaho girls’ poll this season, since those teams are diving into the postseason.
