The holidays shook up the big-class state rankings in girls hockey, and the schedule and time of year indicate there could be a whole lot more shaking going on.

Minnetonka (14-1-1) rose to No. 1 in Class 2A in the Let's Play Hockey rankings released this week, surpassing Hill-Murray. The Skippers' only loss was to Hill-Murray, 5-3 on Dec. 9. Hill-Murray (14-1) lost 4-2 to No. 9 Lakeville North two days after Christmas.

Minnetonka's next defense of its No. 1 ranking will come Saturday against No. 5 Edina (11-3-1) at Braemar Ice Arena.

In Class 1A, Orono (12-4) remains No. 1, but a challenge looms Thursday against Benilde-St. Margaret's, No. 4 in Class 2A, at the St. Louis Park Recreation Center.

The girls hockey regular season has about a month remaining. Section tournaments must be completed by Feb. 16, and the state tournament will begin Feb. 21 at Xcel Energy Center.
