Goff Rankings
The Women’s DII College rankings were tough to follow this year. Either the heavy hitters in the Northeast and Midwest were being heavily hit by snow and ice, or the spring-based teams were suffering through forfeit/cancelation-ridden leagues (with some notable exceptions). But after a month’s hiatus, some good results have necessitated some movement in the Top 20.
Indiana won the Big Ten Universities qualifier tournament this weekend, and in fact it wasn't really all that close. IU is highly motivated to do well in 7s, and thumped Illinois - who had already beaten Michigan, our previously highest-ranked Big Ten team - in the final.
Two big moves occurred in the Women DI College Top 20, and they’re a reflection of the build-up to spring playoffs. Same thing happened in the fall, when post-season teams started peaking and idleness hurt certain teams’ standings.
As the season moves on you'd think that ranking the HS clubs would get easier. It hasn't.
There's a rumor that college kids go on Spring Break - apparently it's true.
Still, some teams played games. Cal beat St. Mary's - that's a big deal. Life edged Davenport - that's a big deal. Utah beat Arizona State - that's a big deal.
Some movement results, with Cal moving to #2 the biggest one.
