Now that the WIAA boys basketball championships have concluded, and six state champions have been crowned - here are the final rankings of the top 25 programs, regardless of classification:

--

HIGH SCHOOL ON SI WASHINGTON POWER 25

1. RAINIER BEACH 28-3 (3A)

Skinny: By the end of it, the Vikings' defense (albeit zone) was sharp as 3A Metro champions ran away from everybody in getting longtime coach Mike Bethea his ninth WIAA title.

---

2. ANNIE WRIGHT 23-2 (1A)

Skinny: In just its fifth year of varsity basketball, Gators finished job on first WIAA championship, capping one of best small-school seasons in recent memory.

---

3. GONZAGA PREP 26-2 (4A)

Skinny: Cast might be ordinary-looking - but Bullpups' role-playing was extraordinary, and they always found a way to get it done in winning WIAA championship.

---

4. GARFIELD 21-8 (3A)

Skinny: One team in classification that could hang with full-strength Rainier Beach team, including in state tournament. And guard Tripp Haywood returns to lead next charge.

---

5. GLACIER PEAK 25-5 (4A)

Skinny: Really had Gonzaga Prep on the ropes before offense went dry in WIAA semifinals. Beat West Valley to place third again. So close to getting elusive gold ball.

---

6. EDMONDS-WOODWAY 26-3 (3A)

Skinny: Cam Hiatt left for Ohio two years ago a normal teenager - and returned a man, leading his neighborhood school to first WIAA title-game berth in school history.

---

7. PUYALLUP 23-8 (4A)

Skinny: 4A SPSL champions certainly got hot at right time, riding senior Drew Jones to classic championship-game duel with Gonzaga Prep, losing on last-second shot.

---

8. RICHLAND 27-3 (4A)

Skinny: What really prevented Bombers from reaching another WIAA title game? One near-perfect West Valley fourth quarter in state quarterfinals. Return bulk of team next year.

---

9. WEST VALLEY OF YAKIMA 19-7 (4A)

Skinny: So-so early turned into fantastic in the postseason as Rams reached WIAA semifinals, losing to Puyallup. Expect Austin Birley (Landen's brother) to be a handful as sophomore.

---

10. SEATTLE PREP 21-11 (3A)

Skinny: An absolute blast-of-a-squad to watch get up and down the floor as Panthers took home fourth-place trophy by avenging Sea-King District loss to Bellevue.

---

11. CAMAS 20-6 (4A)

12. MOUNT SPOKANE 19-10 (3A)

13. BELLEVUE 23-8 (3A)

14. BREMERTON 22-5 (2A)

15. BELLARMINE PREP 24-9 (3A)

16. MOUNT SI 20-9 (4A)

17. AUBURN 24-6 (4A)

18. LYNDEN CHRISTIAN 23-3 (1A)

19. LINCOLN OF TACOMA 26-6 (3A)

20. EASTSIDE CATHOLIC 14-15 (3A)

21. R.A. LONG 26-2 (2A)

22. DAVIS OF YAKIMA 21-4 (4A)

23. ARLINGTON 19-8 (4A)

24. PROSSER 23-8 (2A)

25. COLUMBIA OF BURBANK 27-1 (2B)
