Football rankings

Good grief, just when I thought "maybe" the Central Minnesota Conference might be "down" somewhat compared to past years, the results of Week One plus the first state rankings poll of the year are suggesting I'm wrong. It continues to be one of the most impressive small-school conference in Minnesota.

No less than five teams in the CMC are on the football state rankings: 
preseason favorite Maple Lake
Eden Valley-Watkins (tied for #9 in Class AA)
Holdingford
Pierz
Rockford Area
