AA rankings this week resemble a duck on top of the water. 

Same ol, same ol. 

But if you look under the surface you will see a lot of paddling and direction changes.  There are at least five teams (Lakeville North, Rochester, Roseville, Shakopee, and Woodbury) that can make a case for the T10. In less than two weeks, we could have up to three or four new teams in the Rankings (some for the first time). 

Woodbury is 7-2-1 in their last 10 including wins over Lakeville North and Rogers.

Proctor is back in the top three this week as the Rails are steadily chugging along with a four-game win streak. Park-Cottage Grove took a huge leap in the rankings from No. 10 to No. 4 as the Wolfpack are on a blazing eight-game win streak currently. Armstrong Cooper and Bloomington Jefferson are both back in the rankings this week. 

Edina White starts out the new year as our new No. 1 team; the Hornets are on an astounding fourteen-game win streak. Roseville is up two spots this week to No. 3. The Raiders are on the current longest streak at the level with seventeen straight wins. Farmington is brand new in the rankings this week at No. 8. The Tigers are 24-8-2 on the season and have one of the strongets strengths of schedules in Minnesota.

A few weeks back, the PWAA rankers were asking when a team outside of the Big Four (Edina, Minnetonka, OMG and Woodbury) would lose to a non-Big Four.

Not only did that happen, but now we have a Big Five!

East Grand Forks is this week's #1 team. Well deserved Greenewave.

Mankato is the new No. 1 team at PWA, with only one loss all season. The Mavericks knocked off previous unbeaten 507 team Austin twice in five days!

 Cloquet takes the biggest leap up to No. 3 as the Lumberjacks are taking a six-game win streak into the new year. Warroad is playing a very tough schedule and is rewarded with a No. 9 rank this week. Watch out for the Warriors, as playoffs are creeping up soon.

East Grand Forks Green is now up to No. 2, as the Green Wave haven’t lost to a team from MN since November. New to the rankings at No. 7, Park Rapids has impressed as of late, winning eight straight. Dodge County is new to the rankings this week, as the Wildcats had a December to remember, going 15-0-2 on the month. 

Wadena jumped up two spots this week to No. 4 as the Wolverines are 15-0-1 on the season. Chaska/Chanhassen Purple hasn’t lost in a month and has now jumped up one spot to No. 7. No. 9 STMA Blue and No. 10 Grand Rapids are both new to the rankings this week.
