Just like the boys hockey rankings this week, not much wholesale movement in the numbers.

Maple Grove is the exception, however. The Crimson jumped from No. 14 last week into the top 10 via a respectable one-goal loss to top-ranked Centennial/Spring Lake Park. Meanwhile, River Lakes enters the top 25 after winning three consecutive games against Class 1A opponents.

Records through Tuesday, Dec. 17.

1. Centennial/Spring Lake Park (11-0): Last week: No. 1.

2. Minnetonka (10-1-1): Last week: No. 2.

3. Hill-Murray (9-1): Last week: No. 3.

4. Dodge County (8-1-1): Last week: No. 4.

5. Edina (9-2): Last week: No. 5.
