A line in “Minnesota Rouser,” the University of Minnesota’s fight song, is “Minnesota, hats off to thee”.

It goes out to the four girls basketball teams — Providence Academy, Crosby-Ironton, Monticello and Royalton — that concluded the regular season with a prefect record of 26-0.

Crosby-Ironton has since added a section tournament victory. Royalton entered the Class 2A, Section 6 tournament as the second seed behind Sauk Centre.

All records as of Wednesday: All schools are Class 4A unless noted.

2. Maple Grove (24-2) Last week: No. 2
