The only change within the Top 5 of this week’s Bay Area News Group high school boys basketball rankings was a modest one.
De La Salle and Archbishop Riordan traded spots.
Riordan fell from No. 4 to No. 5 after losing by two points to Edison-Stockton. In its only game since the last rankings dropped, De La Salle beat Sacred Heart Cathedral by 13.
St. Francis climbed from No. 10 to No. 9 and Clayton Valley Charter moved from No. 11 to No. 10.
Moreau Catholic climbed two spots to No. 14 and Menlo-Atherton jumped two spots to No. 15.
M-A plays host to Riordan on Wednesday.
