2026 OSSAA Power 25: Week Five

We update the Power 25 after nearly a month's worth of games.  This update features a few small changes due to results on the field as well as still some projection with the talent on the field. Further, we see some teams continuing to get healthy with optimism in the upcoming weeks. All scores and records are from the OSSAA Rankings page or Gamechanger.

Tuttle remains at #1 after a 4-0 week that saw them defeat a pair of Fall State Champions in Okarche and Calumet. Talented and well coached teams that we also saw compete a week ago. At #2, Edmond Memorial returns after competing in the prestigious USA Baseball National HS Invitational in Cary, NC and sit at 12-4 on the year.

Rounding out our top 5 is Choctaw as they continue to stack wins against strong opponents and improved to 10-2 on the season after a 5-0 week.
