Milan boys enter West Tennessee Basketball Rankings after Week 15

By Michael Odom | March 2, 2026 |

It’s the best time of the basketball season. Two of the next three games are elimination games, and after those three games, we will be ready for the state tournament.

There aren’t any OK teams around. The teams still alive are very good and ready to compete for a spot in the state tournament.

The West Tennessee High School Basketball Rankings reflect that.

Here are the top 15 teams in the West Tennessee High School Basketball Rankings going into the 15th week of the season:
