Jewish Hoops America
National Top 25
Week of November 5, 2018
Games through Nov. 4
Magen David stayed perfect while rolling to the Cooper Invitational title. But defending JHA #1 Shalhevet started its season in similarly impressive fashion, including a 40-point win in the Glouberman Tournament championship game. The result was a narrow vote for the Firehawks as the top-ranked teams. Expect these two loaded squads to slug it out from opposite coasts all season long.
The Cooper results also gave the rankings its biggest bumps, with runner-up Rochelle Zell and 3rd place Posnack jumping from a tie at #25 to #5 and #8 respectively.
Added this week: Ramaz and MTA
Dropped out: Cooper Memphis and Kushner
