For the third consecutive week, there is a new No. 1 girls team in The Times-Tribune High School Basketball Poll.

Abington Heights, winners of four straight, claimed the top spot after starting its Lackawanna League Division I season with a 54-21 win over Wallenpaupack, which returned to the poll at No. 10 this week.

This week, Abington Heights plays at Wilkes-Barre Area on Monday and will be part of the Parkland Holiday Tournament over the holiday break.

Meanwhile, Riverside remained undefeated after a convincing win over rival Holy Cross in the Lackawanna Division II opener. The Vikings are a unanimous choice as the No. 1 boys team in the poll.

In the girls ranking, preseason No. 1 Scranton Prep is in a tie for No. 2 with Dunmore.

Scranton Prep defeated previously undefeated and ranked Delaware Valley, 58-37, before losing to Xaverian, New York, 50-23, at the She Got Game event. Dunmore, which has a loss to West Orange, New Jersey, had three wins last week by an average margin of 34.0 points per game.

Both teams will compete in the Lynett Memorial Basketball Tournament during the holiday break Dec. 27 and Dec. 29 at Lackawanna College.

North Pocono, last week’s No. 1 team, lost to Hazleton Area, beat Scranton and lost to Loyalsock. The Lady Trojans dropped to No. 4.

Valley View improved to 6-1 overall, with its only loss coming against Dunmore, and is ranked at No. 5. The Cougars will host Lakeland in the semifinals of the Lou Camoni Memorial Tournament on Dec. 27.

Delaware Valley moved up a spot to No. 6 after going 1-1 last week, which included a 54-41 win over Mountain View, now ranked at No. 7.

Honesdale is at No. 8 for a second straight ranking. The Lady Hornets had a 12-point win over Old Forge last week and will compete in the Honesdale Jaycees Tournament this week.

Riverside (3-3) is in the poll at No. 9. The Lady Vikes defeated Holy Cross, 43-23, in a Division II opener last week.

In the boys poll, after Riverside, there was little movement.

No. 2 Valley View and No. 3 Dunmore are both undefeated. The Cougars had convincing wins over Wyoming Valley West and West Scranton, while the Bucks blasted Montrose, beat Lakeland and powered past Mount Carmel.

Valley View has been impressive with wins over Holy Cross and Old Forge in the preseason. The Cougars will face Lakeland in the semifinals of the Peter Turonis/NBT Bank Holiday Tournament on Dec. 26.

Scranton Prep (2-2) and Abington Heights (4-3) traded places at No. 4 and No. 5.

Old Forge defeated Honesdale in a Division II opener and climbed two places to No. 6. Old Forge will play Mountain View on Tuesday, then hosts the Anthony “Badger” Memorial Basketball Tournament. The Blue Devils open against undefeated Wyoming Area (7-0) in the semifinals Dec. 27.

Holy Cross, which is battling injuries in the preseason, is down one spot to seventh. The Crusaders are one of three ranked teams competing at the Lynett Memorial Basketball Tournament. They will face borough rival Dunmore in a semifinal Dec. 27.
