Since beginning the season ranked just outside the Top 10 in Class 3A in the Minnesota Volleyball Coaches Association poll, Prior Lake has been surely and steadily climbing. After another week in which the previous top-ranked team (Eden Prairie) lost, the Lakers have now ascended to the pinnacle in the latest poll, dated Sept. 29.

But like the other contenders who have briefly held that spot, the big question is, “Can Prior Lake remain there?”

It hasn’t been easy to have the target of a No. 1 ranking — ask Eden Prairie, Eagan and Chaska — and Prior Lake gets a big test this Tuesday with a road match at No. 5-3A Lakeville South, which makes it our Top Match of the Week.
