Middlebury College (3-0) remained in the top spot in the Division III Coaches Poll this week, followed by a pair of unbeaten teams in Tufts (3-0) and Franklin & Marshall (4-0). Washington and Lee (5-1) moved into the top five, landing at #4, after beating Gettysburg (3-1) by a 12-9 score and knocking the Bullets down to the sixth spot. Wesleyan (2-0) stayed put at number five, and Salisbury (3-1), York (3-1), Amherst (3-1), and Catholic (2-0) remained locked into the seventh through tenth positions in the poll. Although there was some minor shuffling in the back end of the poll, there was no significant movement, and only one new entrant, as Pomona-Pitzer (7-0) claimed the final spot in the poll this week.

There are several Top-25 games to watch this week, starting on Monday, when #5 Wesleyan visits Colorado College (#15). Wednesday sees Ithaca (#16) squaring off at Colorado College, and #6 Gettysburg facing #7 Salisbury. On Saturday, #18 Brockport visits Salisbury, #17 Colby travels to Wesleyan, #4 Washington and Lee welcomes #10 Catholic, top-ranked Middlebury hosts #20 Trinity, #3 Franklin & Marshall visits Cortland (#23), and Gettysburg hosts #2 Tufts.
