Two football teams are unanimous No. 1 choices in the high school football class-by-class rankings released Tuesday.

Stewartville in Class 3A and Minneota in Class 1A, each the defending state champion in its class, received all of the first-place votes from the panel of 12 media members. In Class 5A, Elk River received 11 first-place votes and Moorhead received the other.

The No. 1 team changed in three classes. In Class 6A, Lakeville North took the top spot thanks to Edina's loss Thursday to Minnetonka, and Maple Grove and Minnetonka also received first-place votes. Becker replaced Hutchinson atop Class 4A after Hutchinson lost to Totino-Grace. In Class 2A, Caledonia's loss to Chatfield made room for Barnesville at No. 1.

Nevis remained No. 1 in Nine-Player.

The rankings are compiled by the Minnesota Star Tribune's Jim Paulsen and distributed statewide by the Associated Press.
