Goff Rankings
Well, it had to happen. With the #2 and #3 teams playing each other, the #1 team, Life, was in jeopardy unless they won big over #7 Davenport. They didn't. LIfe edged Davenport 28-25, and BYU edged St. Mary's 32-28. The results move the Cougars of Provo up to #1 and Life slips to #2.
A few things have happened since our last Girls High School Top 20 ranking. State titles have been awarded, and even more SBROs held fall 7s series. For those teams that contest their 15s season in the spring, preferential treatment was given to those who participated in a fall 7s league.
Three months have passed since the last Women DII College Top 20 ranking, and that waiting period was necessary. Even though spring leagues began in January, a disconcerting amount of forfeits and cancelations – across all in-season leagues – stunted the judgment process.

In the latest Goff Rugby Report Men's DI College Rankings, there is some notable movement. Life remains at #1 after beating two very strong ranked teams. But we might well see a new #1 after this weekend, because #2 BYU plays #3 St. Mary's. The winner could very well move up to the top spot.
It’s been three weeks since the last update to the Women DI College Top 20, and some small moves have occurred during that time.
