There is not a ton of movement and no movement at all amongst the top 15.
Towson edges up closer to Salisbury after a close loss there. Miami drops down mostly because we haven't seen them do much while other teams are playing and winning.

This was a tense game throughout and it actually wasn’t until the 30th minute that anyone scored. Jordan Duncan finished off a nice sequence to give Dartmouth a 5-0 lead. women's rugby team improved to 5-0 on Saturday with a 26-19 win over rival Harvard.
Yale pulled off a big win over the weekend in Liberty D1AA, beating previously undefeated Columbia 34-14 to move to 4-1.
While UMass sits 4-0, and have won a close one over Yale, the Bulldogs moved into first while the Minutemen were idle. And that's a good signal about where we are in this conference. Yale has played a bunch of tough teams, and has beaten almost all of them.
