There’s a new No. 1 in the Class 1A coaches' poll, as Totino-Grace has replaced Orono.
The Spartans, who held the top spot all season, lost their first game on Saturday, a 3-2 defeat to Monticello. They slid to No. 3 in the rankings.
The loss opened the door for the Eagles to take over, capping an impressive run. They have yet to drop any points this season, winning all eight of their games. Their biggest test of the season comes on Friday, when they will travel to No. 2-1A Blake to try to hang on to their top ranking.
St. Thomas Academy stayed put at No. 4, while Holy Angels climbed one spot to No. 5.
With its win against Orono, Monticello moved into the top 10 for the first time this year. The Magic sit at No. 10 after winning four of their last five games.
While the top three spots in the rankings remained consistent this week, the bottom three saw the most movement.
Stillwater claimed the top spot, followed by No. Wayzata and No. 3 for the fifth consecutive poll. Duluth East climbed one place to No. 4 while Minneapolis Washburn dropped one spot to No. 5.
Moving into the No. 8 spot is Maple Grove. The Crimson have yet to lose a game this season, and last week they gained seven out of a possible nine points. Jack Gleckler has scored a goal in each of their two victories last week, a 3-0 win over Buffalo and a 2-1 win over Robbinsdale Armstrong.
The No. 9 spot is occupied by Eastview, another undefeated team. The Lightning are on a five-game winning streak, which has helped push them back into the top 10. The Lightning have outscored their opponents 17-2 during the winning streak.
Eastview is tied with Prior Lake atop of the Suburban South Conference standings. The No. 10-ranked Lakers were No. 6 in the preseason but fell out after early losses to Edina and Wayzata. Since the loss to Wayzata, Prior Lake has allowed just three goals in six games. The Lakers posted a 0-0 draw with Farmington Tuesday night, ending their five-game win streak.
