Kennesaw finished its season as the SELC champion, while College of Idaho will host the PNCLL tournament this weekend in Caldwell.
St. Thomas (13-3) kept its spot in the third chair after capturing the UMLC title. Grand Valley State (9-3), which lost to the Tommies in the UMLC finals, moves up a spot to No. 4, while Utah (9-3) hopped two spots into fifth.
Both jumped former No. 4 Rhode Island (7-2), which dropped to No. 6.
