Bell’s Best Teams: Week Nine Rankings

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Each week throughout the 2025-26 regular season, I will release my top 15 teams for every Michigan girls' basketball division. Several writers, news companies, and scouts publish their rankings, so why not join in the fun? Teams are selected and ranked using wins/losses against elite teams, wins/losses against average teams, and wins/losses against uncompetitive teams. My rankings are updated and revised weekly based on results/observations from the previous week. These team rankings are my opinion and are done for entertainment purposes. However, similarly to our player rankings, I feel confident putting my team rankings list out there as a reliable source. As games are played, pre-season expectations yield to game-day outcomes, which alter the rankings. Here are my best teams heading into week nine.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/2026/01/bells-best-teams-week-eight-rankings/">Read Week 8 Rankings</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">PGH Michigan's Top Ten Teams (All Divisions)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1188151,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2025/02/PXL_20250208_182033855-crop-3024x1986-1739290240.jpg?w=800" alt="" class="wp-image-1188151" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">[player_tooltip player_id='1236900' first='Kinley' last='Regnery'], 2029, South Christian, MBA.</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>1.
