Top 25 Virginia Girls High School Basketball State Rankings

The final week of the 2025-26 Virginia girls basketball season has arrived. The state public championships take place Saturday at Virginia Commonwealth University’s Siegel Center.

Princess Anne, High School on SI’s top-ranked in the Commonwealth all season, look to continue its reign as Class 5 champion against No. 4 Menchville Thursday evening. The Cavaliers, riding a 70-game winning streak, seek a third straight Class 5 crown.

The Class.6 finale, also on Thursday, will be a Top 10 showdown as No. 5 Manchester take on No. 8 and defending champ Osbourn Park. It will be a rematch of the 2025 title game.

Skyline, which enters this week’s Top 25 at No. 22, plays Abingdon for the 3A crown Saturday. Union and Clarke County (2A) and Galax and Luray (1A) play Friday.

The Class 4 title match will be decided Tuesday as No. 17 Salem hosts 19th-ranked Hampton and No. 23 Heritage-Leesburg visits No. 16 Manor in semifinal action. The winners will play Saturday.

Monday, Manor received a temporary injunction from a Circuit Court judge to return to the postseason after the Virginia High School League disqualified the team for playing an ineligible player in its Region A opening round match the week before. The ruling paused the Class 4 tourney for a couple of days.

Class 5 state semifinalist William Fleming (No. 20) joins Skyline and Heritage-Leesburg as newcomers in the next-to-last Top 25 of the season.
