2021 IWLCA Division III Coaches Poll – April 5, 2021

 

Franklin & Marshall (1-0) collected 19 of 25 first-place votes to remain the number one team in this week’s Division III Coaches Poll. Washington and Lee (8-0) narrowly edged Tufts (1-0) to slip into the second spot, while Salisbury (9-0) and Gettysburg (3-0) stayed locked into the fourth and fifth positions. York (6-0) and Catholic (3-0) each moved up one spot, Ithaca (6-0) moved up two places to #8, Colby (1-0) jumped three spots to land in the top ten for the first time this season, while Wesleyan (0-1) tumbled to #10. Montclair State (2-0) is the only new entry to the poll this week, after their 10-9 win over TCNJ knocked the Lions down to #14.

Christopher Newport (#21) travels to #22 St. Mary’s on Monday to kick off this week’s Top-25 competition. On Wednesday, St. Mary’s is in action again, this time at #19 Mary Washington, and #20 Messiah visits #6 York. Saturday’s games include Mary Washington at Christopher Newport, #3 Tufts at Colby (#9), and #12 St. John Fisher at #13 Geneseo. The lone Sunday game is Meredith (RV) at St. Mary’s.
