Sheldon and Pleasant Grove Get Top Seeds in Basketball Playoffs

Basketball playoffs are right around the corner, and two Elk Grove teams are sitting at the top of the Division I rankings.

Sheldon High School has the No. 1 seed, while Pleasant Grove is No. 2. Their first games will be 7 p.m. Wednesday at home. Sheldon will face the winner of the Friday game between No. 16 Bear Creek and No. 17 Rodriguez. Pleasant Grove will face the winner of the game between No. 15 Armijo and No. 18 West.
