1) This only counts games vs. MSHSL varsity teams.
2) This only uses scores entered on the Girls' Hockey Hub/MGHCA website:
http://www.mghca.com
To enter a missing score contact your team rep. Each team should have a person responsible for updating this information (coach, parent, manager, etc.) - you can also email: scores@tstmedia.com - see: http://www.mngirlshockeyhub.com/page/sh ... mit-scores (they really want a scoresheet image though)

My guess is they didn't update it. When HF/Waconia split, they both were eligible to play A hockey. I'm not sure what that means for which section they are in, but pretty certain HF is not in 2AA anymore.

Makes sense.

Interesting that Waconia is showing up alone in 2 A though.

Could HF have opted up after dissolving the coop?

Uncertain if a school can do so in this situation.

Looks like the rankings will need some changes with HF potentially and possibly also with henry sibley/ st paul coop and maybe even Waconia final placement.

Holy Family is AA. I am 100% certain of this, and the program confirmed this in multiple Tweets on 11/7 to Follow the Puck.

Will be leaving HF in 2AA for now.
Waconia also reflected in MSHSL currently as 2A
St. Paul/Henry Sibley Co-op is the only uncertain one - if remains in 4A or bumps up to 4AA not sure per MSHSL

And the differential back then was just a little more than a point vs. a near 40 point difference in your latest rank here.

Fair point.

I remember that being fairly controversial.

It is remarkable and it appears that they will hold this spot until much later in the season (although the 1-0 win against SSP was not very convincing). They have 2 games against Roseau (KRACH #10) and then no other opponents in the top 20 until the state tourney. Brainerd could give them a game but they are not ranked in the top 20 for AA.

Is there any possible way they lose that spot until if they remain undefeated regardless of how Andover/Edina/Blake and others finish the season in AA?

I was wondering the same, whether one or more could surpass Warroad should they have a string of more impressive wins over high-rated teams, while the Warriors roll over all the unranked teams they're supposed to beat. My guess is yes, if that scenario were to play out the Warriors would NOT hold onto No. 1 in the Overall.

Strength of schedule is interesting here.

I need to upload again to MGHCA but the last numbers I saw indicated the avg rank of warroad opponents is 48. Edina is 24 (toughest in state).

I think we see some undefeated teams below others with losses even now, so, the strength of schedule, in addition to record, will play a factor as it should.

It took a lot less time than I thought it might...Warroad now ranked 3rd in the Overall.
