USILA D-III Poll: Lynchburg on the Outside
Despite boasting the No. 9 spot in this week's poll,
Lynchburg is the highest ranked team not to earn a berth in the
NCAA tournament. The Hornets lost in the ODAC championship game to
No. 5 Roanoke, but were left out of the at-large pool.
Montclair State and Ohio Wesleyan, a pair of teams that will be
playing in the NCAAs, joins the poll while a couple of ODACs -
Washington & Lee and Hampden-Sydney - leave.
