Queens Grant, the reigning state champion, starts No. 1 in The Observer's Sweet 16
Queen’s Grant ended the 2025-26 high school basketball season atop The Charlotte Observer’s Sweet 16 poll. Today, the Stallions start the 2026-27 in the same place: No. 1 in the region’s oldest high school basketball poll. The Observer began The Sweet 16 in 1984 and offers a large banner to the winner to hang in its gym. The ranking includes teams from Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln and Union counties. Queen’s Grant, because it doesn’t have football, is allowed to start its season early. The Stallions have gotten off to a 1-2 start, after a pair of losses to N.C. private school power Forsyth Country Day, the reigning NCISAA 4A state champion and Sweet 16 preseason No. 3 Concord Academy at the Carmel Christian Tip-Off over the weekend. The Sweet 16 rankings, compiled by longtime NC basketball expert Rick Lewis, were compiled before those games were played. Preseason Sweet 16 poll Rk, School 1. Queen’s Grant 2.
