Meanwhile, in Class 4A, a new No. 1 emerges after weeks of back and forth.

The Benson Braves, making their first appearance in the polls this season, are one of four undefeated teams in Class 1A. The other three teams hold the top three spots in the poll.

Five teams are ranked this week after not making the previous Minnesota Boys Basketball Coaches Association top 10 poll.

Along with Tartan and Wayzata swapping the top two spots, Buffalo jumped up from No. 7 to No. 5.

Alexandria and Dawson-Boyd, teams that won state championships last season, remain in the state polls, but are not ranked high.

Several schools entered the boys basketball statewide coaches poll. There’s also a new No. 1 in Class 2A.

In the largest-schools classification, both Eagan and Hopkins moved more than two spots in Class 4A.

Wayzata, the top-ranked team in the state among all classifications, ranks No. 1 in Class 4A. Totino-Grace is ranked No. 1 in Class 3A.

Class 4A’s higher seeds all won, though Wayzata was tested by Moorhead, and Classes 3A and 2A also went according to form.

Going into the state tournament, here’s where Minnesota’s best teams fall in line.
