Updated Top 20: Mashpee jumps to No.12
With snow wiping out many games last week, the front-side of the Top 20 didn't see much action.
However, New Bedford fell three spots to No. 10 after losing to Marshfield. Senior guard Jules Tavares, who's averaging 18.3 points per game, is suspended indefinitely for violating team rules according to coach Tom Tarpey. According to reports, it's the third time Tavares has been suspended this season.
On the back side of the rankings, Mashpee (14-1) moved up to the 12 spot after sitting at No. 17 last week.
The Falcons beat Harwich 83-55, and losses by Newton North (No. 18), Watertown (No. 17) and Wilmington (No. 13) paved the way for five-spot jump.
