Class 6A’s Maple Grove stands alone as a unanimous top pick in the seven football classes.

Serious shuffling came to the seven top-10s, but No. 1 teams stood strong.

The list begins this week with five undefeated teams still left out — Kasson-Mantorville, Minneapolis North, North Branch, Waseca and Albert Lea — but angling for more attention.

Lots of movement came to Class 5A, but the top teams in the other classes stayed put.

In the only change at the top, Elk River took over at No. 1 in Class 5A.

The Bluejays, with North Dakota State commit Deron Russell, and the Cardinals faced off in a Strib Varsity livestream Friday at 7 p.m.

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