Washington drops to 4 in basketball rankings

The Associated Press released its latest Iowa high school boys basketball poll on Monday, and the Union coverage area stuck with three names on the list, all in different classes.

Washington dropped one spot in the Class 3A poll, to No. 4. Mid-Prairie is up three spots in the Class 2A poll, to No. 6, and New London is now tied at No. 7 in Class 1A, up one spot from last week.

Also getting votes in the poll was WACO, which tallied three votes in Class 1A.

It’s a good day to be a Fort Madison Bloodhound. The Southeast Conference leaders have risen to No. 1 in the Class 3A poll.
