All of the top teams did what was expected of them, so they don't move, but we do have major movement further along the rankings.
UW-PLatteville kept winning and they shoot up 16 places. That's in part because #10 Loyola lost, leaving a bit of a void there. IUP keeps looking impressive and comes into the Top 10.
Coast Guard moves up, and Boston University, despite losing twice, moves up because both games were against teams we regard highly—Coast Guard and UMass-Lowell—and were by very thing margins. Of course, at some point BU has to win a game.
UNC-Chapel Hill drops down and UNC-Wilmington moves in thanks to UNC-W beating North Carolina. Also coming in is Bucknell. Long a small-college team, Bucknell is in the DII conversation now and looking very good. We figured Scranton was going well in the MARC, but Bucknell scored 67 on them Wow. So Bucknell is in. Georgetown and The College of New Jersey have both started well enough and move in.
