The consensus on this sight has been accurate. UNC, Syracuse and Northwestern are in a class all by themselves. Depth, athleticism, talent, veterans, you name it they have it. Notre Dame and Penn State are both very good teams but at this point they have a lot of work to do if they expect to knock one of the three off. I thought PSU was holding their own and then the wheels came off, PSU goalie had a tough day, I am not sure if she was off or NU shooters are just really good (probably a combination of both). In any event, both PSU and Notre Dame look better other teams that I have seen (just one guys opinion). Athletic, fast, gritty overall very solid.

Boston College Vs Virginia should be interesting.

Top 3 - no particular order... Northwestern, Syracuse, North Carolina.

Next 7 - no particular order... Notre Dame, Florida, Penn State, Maryland, Boston College, Virginia, Stony Brook.

I think Florida and Stony Brook are at a disadvantage due to their less than competitive schedules. Maybe they can schedule a game Vs each other. The ACC and Big 10 teams will certainly be battle tested come Tournament Time.

Good Luck to all.
