Why would you say Yale is the 3rd best Ivy? Yale has not finished the season ranked in the Top 20 in more than 13 years (2010 - 2022) maybe longer. Yale has a better program than Columbia but that might be it. Maybe going forward they will become more competitive but they have been near the bottom for a long time.


Yale came in ranked 25 at the end of last season. Ahead of Penn, who did not have a good year. That puts them at #2 currently in the Ivies. Dartmouth was good before coach left for Stanford. Brown has potential too. But right now, Yale is #2 in Ivies, and will likely keep improving.

If you have ever walked through Cambridge you can’t
Throw a Stone without hitting an athlete wearing their
Team bag and jacket. They have over 40 varsity sports
With 20% of students being varsity athletes. Do your
Homework bro!!
