2024 ILWomen/IWLCA Division I Poll – April 29
 

Boston College moved behind No. 1 Northwestern after locking up the first automatic qualifying bid to the NCAA Tournament on Sunday afternoon.  

The Eagles topped No. 3 Syracuse in the ACC Championship, 15-8 with a dynamic second half effort led by Kayla Martello’s six goals. Notre Dame and Michigan round out the Top 5 respectively, both suffering losses in the ACC Semifinals and Big Ten Quarterfinals this weekend.  

One ILWomen/IWLCA Division I Poll remains before the NCAA tournament kicks off after the NCAA Selection Committee announces the official bracket on Sunday, May 5. 

The ILWomen/IWLCA Division I Poll will be unveiled Mondays throughout the season. It is voted on jointly by coaches throughout the country and members of the media.
