Defending champs Maple Grove, Jackson County Central and Minneota rank No. 1 in respective classifications.

Wayzata and Providence Academy remain at No. 1 in Class 3A and 1A, and Hill-Murray reaches the top of Class 2A after moving up each week this season.

Lakeville North replaces rival Lakeville South at No. 1 in Class 4A; Marshall (3A), Hawley (2A) and Minneota (1A) hold steady in the coaches poll released Sept. 7.

Minnetonka is pressing Maple Grove for the No. 1 spot in the Week 3 Strib Varsity rankings.
