Division 1

Neenah stays on top of the Division 1 WisSports.net Coaches Poll for a second straight week, though number two Brookfield East closed the gap a bit with an impressive three-game stretch that included wins over Marquette, Sussex Hamilton, and Menomonee Falls. Speaking of Menomonee Falls, they fall from sixth to seventh this week. Franklin drops down three spots to eighth, while De Pere makes a sizable jump from tenth to sixth.

Division 2

Onalaska keeps rolling on as the Hilltoppers are undefeated and a clear number one team in D2. Pewaukee remains second, while Whitefish Bay and Medford move up a spot in the top five with Wisconsin Lutheran dropping to fifth. Xavier and East Troy are new to the poll this week.

Division 3

Racine St. Catherine's is a unanimous number one pick once again, with Lake Country Lutheran solidifying the number two spot after taking down third-ranked St. John's NW Academies on Saturday. Saint Croix Central leap-frogs Kiel for the fourth spot, while Wrightstown slides down a few positions to ninth this week. Lakeside Lutheran enters at number ten, with Darlington dropping out.

Division 4

Cuba City once again has a dominating voting advantage in the Division 4 rankings. Sheboygan Lutheran, who is unbeaten and had been the top team in D5 up until a few weeks ago when the WIAA re-aligned the divisions, moves into the number two spot after The Prairie School suffered its second loss of the year. Fall Creek is the only team to drop out this week.

Division 5

Figuring out the best teams in the redesigned Division 5 is still a work in progress, especially since six of last week's ranked teams suffered at least one loss. Hustisford and Monticello avoided the loss column and remain number one and two, respectively, however. Cambria-Friesland is third despite being one of the teams to go down last week. McDonell Central and Wauzeka-Steuben round out the top five. Almond-Bancroft makes a big move from unranked to sixth, while Northwood also comes into the poll this week at number eight.
