DIII Review: 2nd Coaches Poll
Another week, another coaches poll! We’ve had a bunch of matches since the Tuesday, including some showdowns between nationally ranked programs! The top 4 Midwest teams battled it out this past week in conference play, as Carthage took on North Central in the CCIW and Dominican played Benedictine in NACC play (more on that later). We’ve had some shake ups in the Coaches Poll, so let’s dive in.
Best of the Midwest: #12 Benedictine Upsets #6 Dominican
We were blessed this week to have the four ranked teams Midwest teams go head-to-head. #7 Carthage defeated #11 North Central College (NCC) in a 3-set prelude to what we can expect is a future CCIW Championship meeting. It was the NACC’s turn a day later, as number #6 Dominican took on #12 Benedictine.
Best of the Midwest: #7 Carthage vs #11 North Central College
Carthage has been a recognized program throughout D3 history. North Central College shows signs of breaking into the national conversation, as they went head-to-head last night.
