The University of Maryland remained undefeated at 13-0, and remained number one in the IWLCA Division I Coaches Poll with all 20 first place votes. The second through eighth ranked teams in the poll remained in place this week, as the only movement in the top ten was Penn (9-2) who tied Southern California (11-3) for the ninth spot. Notre Dame (10-5) and Syracuse (11-4) flip flopped at #11 and #12, while Denver (10-2) and Towson (9-4) are tied at #13, and Virginia (7-7), and Northwestern (7-6) held their positions. Duke (7-6) jumped back into the rakings at #20, knocking out Elon (8-5), who continues to receive votes.
Big games on tap during the week include #7 Princeton at #1 Maryland, Penn State (#5) at Northwestern (#16), and Colorado (#6) at #T-9 USC. The top twenty action continues on Saturday when #12 Syracuse visits North Carolina (#2), Duke (#20) travels to Northwestern (#16), and Virginia (#15) hosts Louisville (RV).
