Queens, Kenyon Emory Lead Polls Headed into Championships

The College Swimming Coaches Association of America announces the fourth CSCAA / TYR Top 25 Poll for Divisions II and III.  As teams head into the championship season, there was no change at the top of the polls.  As it has all season long, Queens University of Charlotte led both men's and women's Division II polls.  In Division III, Emory University and Kenyon College led women's and men's standings respectively.

The CSCAA Division II and III Poll Committees produced in-season rankings of the 25 best performing NCAA Swimming and Diving teams in rank order at the time of each poll.  The poll is not designed to predict the results of the NCAA Championship, but rather which teams would win head-to-head against other teams in the country. Ranking are based on performances that have taken place since the previous poll and include invites as well as dual meets.
