The first aia365.com basketball rankings, powered by Maxpreps, of the season are out.  

Everybody knows that Corona del Sol is the No. 1 team in D-I for boys, but the team is currenlty ranked No. 10 in aia365.com's rankings. By the end of the season, the rankings tend to correctly sort everything out. 

But it looks like the top two teams in D-I girls, Dobson and Desert Vista, are already in their rightful place. Below are the top-10 teams for each division.
