The Faribault Falcons have not had a girls hockey team for a couple of seasons.  That didn't stop Let's Play Hockey Mn. from including them in their latest Class A girls high school hockey rankings.

You can't make it up.  I about fell over when I saw the updated rankings listing Faribault among other Class A girls hockey teams that received votes in the latest polls.

Andover is still #1 in Class AA boys and girls.

Complete listings for both are below.

The Best Country Singer From Every State

Some states, like Oklahoma and Texas, are loaded with famous country singers. Others, like Nevada and Maine, are still looking for a real breakthrough artist. See the best and most successful country music artist from all 50 states, starting with Hank Williams and Alabama.

Is Faribault classified as a lake town?

LOOK: Here are the best lake towns to live in

Many of the included towns jump out at the casual observer as popular summer-rental spots--the Ozarks' Branson, Missouri, or Arizona's Lake Havasu--it might surprise you to dive deeper into some quality-of-life offerings beyond the beach and vacation homes. You'll likely pick up some knowledge from a wide range of Americana: one of the last remaining 1950s-style drive-ins in the Midwest; a Florida town that started as a Civil War veteran retirement area; an island boasting some of the country's top public schools and wealth-earners right in the middle of a lake between Seattle and Bellevue; and even a California town containing much more than Johnny Cash's prison blues.
