2016 IWLCA Division I Poll – March 21, 2016
The Maryland Terrapins (6-0) remained the unanimous number one in the IWLCA Division I Coaches Poll, after beating second ranked Florida (9-1) in Gainesville by a score of 14-4. North Carolina and Notre Dame each moved up a spot to number three and four after Syracuse lost to Boston College, and fell to number five. The Eagles jumped to the #12 position after beating the Orange and have another chance to move up when they play North Carolina on March 26. Notre Dame will look to solidify their top-five position when they face Syracuse later this week. New entries into the top ten are Southern California (7-0) in the eight spot, and Stanford (5-1) at number nine.
