There is a new No. 1 team in The Dallas Morning News\u2019 Class 6A area rankings for girls basketball.<\/p>\n

After then-No. 1 Lancaster lost 64-59 to DeSoto on Friday, North Crowley takes over the top spot. It is well deserved, and not just because North Crowley is on a 14-game winning streak and has outscored its opponents by an average of 14.2 points per game on the season.<\/p>\n

North Crowley has beaten reigning state champions<\/a> Humble Summer Creek, Fort Worth Boswell and Denton Ryan, along with state-ranked Denton Braswell, Waco La Vega and Mansfield Lake Ridge. North Crowley also owns wins over five out-of-state opponents.<\/p>\n

Lancaster falls one spot to No. 2 and Southlake Carroll remains at No. 3. Carroll (25-1, 11-0 District 4-6A) beat Keller Timber Creek 53-31 on Tuesday and clinched a playoff berth for the eighth straight year.<\/p>\n

No. 4 Plano East (22-7, 10-0) has won eight in a row and leads District 6-6A by two games over Prosper Rock Hill. Sophomore superstar Arianna Robinson<\/a> passed Tavy Diggs to become Plano East\u2019s all-time leading scorer Tuesday, and Robinson now has 1,437 points in her first two seasons as she continues to show why she is the state\u2019s No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2028.<\/p>\n

Duncanville made a big jump this week, going from No. 10 to No. 5 after a 47-38 win over then-No. 5 Cedar Hill<\/a>, last season\u2019s 6A Division I state runner-up. Duncanville (19-7, 7-1) is tied with Lancaster for first place in District 11-6A, and those two teams will face off Jan. 30 at Lancaster after Lancaster won their first district meeting 77-27.<\/p>\n

Argyle stays No. 1 in this week\u2019s Class 5A-others area rankings after wins over Birdville and Richland. Argyle (24-4, 5-1) is one game behind District 6-5A leader Denton Ryan (25-4, 6-0).<\/p>\n

Argyle remained in the top spot in The News\u2019 rankings because it has beaten both Ryan (54-49 on Nov. 15) and Lincoln (56-45 on Dec. 2). Argyle also owns wins over state-ranked Southlake Carroll and Frisco Wakeland and area-ranked Frisco Memorial and Lovejoy.<\/p>\n
