There’s not a lot of change in this week’s Charlotte Observer Sweet 16 poll.

There’s a little shuffling, but Mallard Creek still leads the poll. Hickory Ridge moved up a spot to second and Sun Valley jumped into the top 10, after winning its sixth straight game last week. No new teams are in the poll.
