The O'Gorman Knights are back near the top of the Class AA boys basketball poll after reeling off eight straight wins.

O'Gorman enters this week ranked second in the newest South Dakota Prep Media Basketball Poll. The Knights picked up wins this past weekend over Rapid City Central and Rapid City Stevens to move to 9-2 overall. Brandon Valley and Roosevelt both jumped up in the rankings following a Huron loss to Lincoln.

On the Class AA girls' side, O'Gorman is the unanimous top-ranked team following a perfect 10-0 start and a win over #2 Rapid City Stevens this past weekend. Harrisburg is the only other undefeated team in the class and they have moved up to second. O'Gorman and Harrisburg will meet on February 7.
