CJI Girls, Browning Boys Move Up In Power Polls

The CJI girls got one first place vote in a hotly contested Girls C Top Ten, while the Browning boys got their first real recognition of the season from voters. The Fairfield girls moved back to number one after displaced last week by Townsend, and the Dutton-Brady and CJI boys are just out of the C boys top ten.

A couple of games to watch this week: #3 Malta hosts #4 Rocky Boy in class B, and 9-2 Melstone invites in Northern Cheyenne, a team that has scored over 100 points three times this season.
