In the women’s poll, Drury maintained a two-point lead over Queens University of Charlotte.  Nova Southeastern moved up three spots to third.  Lindenwood made the biggest jump in the poll, leaping fifteen spots to number four.  Tampa rose five spots to number five.  Rounding out the top ten women’s team were Indianapolis, West Chester, Northern Michigan and West Florida.
