POWERADE State Rankings: Final

Week:
Poll:

After games of Saturday, March 31

The rankings closed weeks ago for all but two Florida teams - Montverde Academy and Blanche Ely, both of which took part in the National High School Invitational in Bethesda, Md., last week. Montverde, which was the state's No. 1 team for all but one week this season, advanced to the finals of the tourney, losing a heartbreaker to national No. 2 Findlay Prep. The Eagles end the 2011-12 campaign ranked No. 9 in the nation in the POWERADE FAB 50. Ely bowed out in the first round of the NHSI but played well against New Jersey power St. Benedict, and the state champion Tigers finish the winter ranked No. 2 in Florida and No. 20 nationally.
