The boys of Madison Edgewood jumped 25 spots to #2 in the first Wisconsin high school swimming rankings of the new year. That’s in Division 2, where Monona Grove still leads, and Madison Memorial remains atop the Division 1 rankings.
The ranks haven’t changed much, with only a handful of holiday invites tweaking the format since the previous ranks were released. In Division 1 (for the state’s biggest schools), Madison Memorial is still #1, chasing a 7th-consecutive state title. Waukesha South/Catholic Memorial – the last team to beat Madison Memorial at state, doing so in 2010 – remains #2 after jumping 16 spots last week.
In Division 2 (for the state’s smaller schools), Monona Grove is still at the top despite missing the title at the Sauk Prairie Co-op Invite by 11 points. The host Sauk Prairie won that meet, currently ranking #7 in Division 1.
Madison Edgewood, which finished 6th of the 6 teams in that invite, made a huge leap to #2 in Division 2. The Sauk Prairie meet was pretty loaded, featuring Division 1’s #6 (Neenah) and#7 (Sauk Prairie) teams, plus Division 2’s #1 (Monona Grove), #2 (Edgewood), #4 (McFarland) and #6 (Ashwaubenon) teams.
