2018 IWLCA Division II Coaches Poll – March 26, 2018

 

After collecting 23 of a possible 25 first-place votes, Florida Southern (10-0) took the top spot in the IWLCA Division II Coaches Poll again this week. The top five teams remain unchanged as Adelphi (7-1) sits in second, Lindenwood (11-0) is third, Le Moyne (7-0) is ranked fourth, and Florida Tech stays at five, after a 15-11 loss to Florida Southern last week. LIU Post (6-2) switched spots with Limestone (8-2) after the Saints fell to Rollins by a score of 9-7. Indianapolis (6-1) and Rollins (10-2) moved up to take the eighth and ninth spot after New Haven (3-3) fell from the top-10 to land at #14 following a loss to Merrimack (5-3). Mercy (6-1) holds onto their spot to round out the Top-10. Merrimack had the biggest jump this week, improving six spots from #21 to #15, and Bentley (4-1) is the only newcomer to the poll this week, landing at #24.

There are several top-25 games to watch this week, including Tampa (#17) at top-ranked Florida Southern on Tuesday, Pace (#11) at Adelphi (#2), New Haven (#14) at Le Moyne (#4), and East Stroudsburg (#21) at West Chester (#13) on Wednesday, and Grand Valley State (#16) against Indianapolis (#8) on Thursday. The weekend’s games include Stonehill at LIU Post (#6) and West Chester at #20 Mercyhurst.
