Boys Basketball Power Poll through Jan. 28th

Here's the Morning Journal's Boys Basketball Power Poll according to Assistant Sports Editor Anthony Rios through January 28th.

The rankings are based on records, division and opponents faced.

This week Avon Lake remained at the top spot again with two victories against North Olmsted and Brecksville.

Lorain and Avon jumped to No. 3 and No. 4 respectively, while Norwalk made the biggest jump of the week, moving from No. 10 to No. 6.

Edison and Perkins both dropped four spots. The Chargers beat Perkins on the road last Friday, but fell to Norwalk the following night on the road.

The Pirates' loss to Edison gives the Chargers the inside track to the Sandusky Bay Conference.
