Mr. Ypsi

Thanks!

BTW, my contest winnings may be deposited in my PayPal account, but I'd prefer unmarked bills - nosy IRS you understand. ;D

Pretty interesting results...no surpirse that Wooster, Amherst, and Point are on both lists.

Looks like Wash U takes the prize for most all-time points Men & Women combined

The Dutchmen are creeping up.

Any teams on either poll with just one point all time? (I'm sick like that...)

Huh!  guess we've been creeps for awhile.

Hope's picking up about 800 points on both Washington and UW Stevens Point each week for now.  Should things hold near their current status Hope might slip ahead of UW-SP

Good stuff DC, thanks or sharing.

Mr. Ypsi

sac,

And note that Hope is already one of only two schools with 25,000+ votes for each gender (though Rochester and perhaps UWSP should join the club before the season is over).  It looks like at least next year before the male Dutch can have Hope join WashU in the even more exclusive 30-30 club.

I also noted that Bowdoin and Scranton could kick the men out of school, and their standing would be unchanged.  And, David, Wooster could go the way of Wabash and their vote total wouldn't be affected - light a fire under those Lady Scots! ;)

If Wooster, co-educational since its founding in 1866, "went the way of Wabash" I'd light a fire all right, but it would be a lot closer to the Administration building than the gymnasium.

And vice versa, as it were.

Hope will probably be starting 4 Soph's and a 1 Sr. next year, with a bunch of Soph's or current JV's Jr's off the bench with little varsity experience.

I wouldn't expect Hope to spend a lot of time in the top 25 on the men's side.  The women however may just be pitching a tent  in the top 10 for awhile.

Seeing as how the University of Scranton has two national championships, four Final Fours, and over thirty tournament wins courtesy of the male version of Royals basketball, I'd think that the school administrators would want to think twice about kicking the men out of school over something as comparatively trivial as Top 25 poll totals. ;)

Given how Beloit performed during the Cecil Youngblood era (and its aftermath this season, although MWC people I know think that Brian Vraney has a chance to turn the Bucs program around), I'm nonplussed that Beloit mustered even one lone #25 vote at some point over the past decade.

I realize this one may be tough, given schools moving between divisions and all, but how many current DIII schools have never received a vote?

Since I can only recall Lincoln PA, William Penn IA, Clarke IA, Upper Iowa (UIU), Chowan, Stillman and  leaving D-III in the last 8 years, it might not be as hard.


My good friend "sac" reminded me of SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design)!

Thanks and +1!  :)

I have to believe the majority of Division III schools have never received a vote.  Interested to hear the number though if David has it.
