Commentary
More of the same in the top three as Hermantown, Warroad and Mahtomedi continue to separate themselves from the rest of Class A.
Thief River has crept into the T10 with a nice string of wins and close losses. Denfeld is back in the T10 after an impressive win over Duluth East.

| 5 | Wayzata | Lake | LWW |
Commentary
Not sure if number one Edina will drop a game the rest of the year; they look playoff primed. Minnetonka takes a leap up to number two, as they beat previous number two Wayzata by a wide margin. Osseo/Maple Grove and Centennial both take care of business and are up one spot this week.

The top five teams stay the same, as they collectively combine for a 10-0 record this week. Edina (Green) is up to one spot this week to number six, as they are on a four-game win streak. Edgcumbe has worked themselves into the rankings this week, at number nine: they are 11-3-2 on the year. Duluth is having a very solid year and made the state tourney a lot in JGB: they are at number ten in this week's rankings.
