Please note, divisional placement in our poll is based on our Enrollment Projections done earlier this year. Divisional placement in the WIAA playoffs is not determined until after the season and these projections can and will be different than the divisions at the end of the year.

Mukwonago's time atop the rankings proved to be short, as the Indians dropped a road game at rival Muskego. The Warriors move to the top spot this week, with Kimberly second. Mukwonago drops to fourth. 

Kettle Moraine and Waunakee continue to dominate the Division 2 rankings, but there's plenty of changes behind those two teams. Brookfield Central lost to Sussex Hamilton and dropped out of the top five, while a loss by Kaukauna to Fond du Lac also sent the Cardinals down a few spots. Menomonie is a third ranked D2 team to suffer its first loss last week, and the Mustangs fall to 10th.

Port Washington is still the number one team in Division 3, but it is very close, as Mount Horeb/Barneveld received quite a bit of support in the rankings. Luxemburg-Casco, Rice Lake, and Menasha are new this week, with Grafton, West Bend East, and Rhinelander falling out after losses.

Catholic Memorial has now won three straight after a couple losses to open the year, allowing the Crusaders to retain the number one position the last couple weeks. Lodi is second, followed by Two Rivers. Baldwin-Woodville, Little Chute, and Campbellsport all suffered their first losses of the season but manage to hang in the rankings this week, while Ellsworth drops out after a second loss this year.

Columbus' spot atop Division 5 is secured because of how the Cardinals have played but also because two other top five teams suffered losses last week. Northwestern fell to Cameron and dips from second to seventh. Prairie du Chien suffered its second loss of the year, this time a shutout to Platteville, and tumbles completely out of the rankings. Neillsville/Granton moves in this week.

Kenosha St. Joseph remains on top of the Division 6 poll, with Saint Mary's Springs hot on the Lancers' heels. Mondovi went down to Neillsville/Granton, and it drops the Buffaloes from fourth to eighth this week. Westby is unbeaten and has looked very good so far, entering the rankings for the first time at tenth.

Little change in the D7 rankings this week, but it does set up a huge matchup between top-ranked Cashton and second-ranked Bangor for control of the Scenic Bluffs Conference this week. Regis slips ahead of Regis for the third spot. Potosi/Cassville is new to the rankings this week at number ten.

Not much change in the 8-player rankings, where Gilman still holds the top spot. The rest of the top nine is the same as last week. Lena/St. Thomas comes into the poll this week, just edging out Gibraltar for the final spot.
