2019 IWLCA Division I Coaches Poll – May 6, 2019

 

We have a new number one team in the final IWLCA Division I Coaches Poll of the regular season, as last week’s top team, Maryland (18-1), dropped a spot in the poll after losing in the Big Ten Championship game to Northwestern (14-4) by a 16-11 score. Boston College (19-1) returns to the top ranking despite being idle last week after falling in the ACC Championship on April 28. North Carolina (15-3) remains third, while Syracuse (15-4) drops to number five. Virginia (12-6) and Notre Dame (13-4) hold steady at six and seven, but Princeton (14-3) moves up a spot after claiming the Ivy League title by virtue of a 13-9 win over Penn (12-5). Michigan (15-3) fell to number nine and Loyola (15-4) moved back into the top ten after winning the Patriot League title with a 21-9 victory over Navy (15-4).

Maryland, Boston College, North Carolina, Northwestern, Syracuse, Virginia, Princeton, and Michigan will be the top eight seeds in the NCAA Division I Championship Tournament that gets underway with opening round games on May 7.
