MCLA D-II Coaches Poll: Tommies on Top
St. Thomas has wrapped up its automatic bid to the MCLA championships in Greenville, S.C., and managed to avenge its loss to rival St. John's along the way. Will that be good enough to plug the Tommies into the top seed? They're looking pretty good for it right now, but a CCLA championship for Grand Valley State would likely put the Lakers in contention.
Who's Hot?
Gonzaga (+3): The presumptive favorite in the PNCLL made a move into the Top 20 after an idle week.
Who's Not?
Coastal Carolina (-3): There were high hopes for the Chanticleers, but they were ousted in the first round of the SELC tourney by Liberty.
Who's New?
Fort Lewis: The Skyhawks are on a three-game tear heading into the RMLC playoffs.
