Aberdeen Roncalli continues to receive votes in 11B, just outside of the top five. Ipswich continues to receive votes in 9AA, Wolsey-Wessington is fourth and Warner fifth in 9A, and Herreid-Selby Area remains in second in 9B with Potter County receiving votes.

The Class 11AAA, Class 11AA and Class 11A polls were completely unchanged as those teams begin play this week.
