All of the top-rated volleyball teams were able to maintain their prime positions in this week’s media polls despite two of them suffering setbacks over the past week.

Warner is a unanimous selection in Class B despite dropping its first match last Saturday, and Sioux Falls Christian remained atop the Class A rankings despite losing to three opponents from Iowa. O’Gorman is the top rated team in AA.

Northwestern remained second in Class B, while Wolsey-Wessington slipped to fifth. Hamlin and Mobridge-Pollock are receiving votes in Class A. Both of those squads are undefeated on the season.

Platte-Geddes in Class A and Huron in Class AA moved into the top five this week after receiving votes last week.
