Stability is the word in the Patch Northern Region Boys Basketball Coaches Poll, as six of the top eight spots remain unchanged with Woodson and Edison flip-flopping in the No. 5 and No. 6 spots. Herndon narrowed T.C. Williams’ grip on the top spot thanks to No. 4 Annandale’s win over the Titans last week. All 10 teams from last week’s rankings remained this week, with Westfield forcing a tie in the last spot with Yorktown.
