KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Lawrence Tech (Mich.) remained at the top, receiving six first-place votes in the first regular season NAIA Women's Lacrosse Poll. SCAD Savannah (Ga.) and Reinhardt (Ga.) are both tied at No. 2 while No. 4 Keiser (Fla.) and No. 5 Cumberlands (Ky.) round out the top five this week.
Poll Methodology:
The NAIA Women's Lacrosse Poll is for publicity purposes only and has no weight or bearing in the selection process for national championship field consideration
The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences and Continental Athletic Conference (Independents)
The Top 10 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. A team receives 30 points for each first-place vote, 29 for second place and so on through the list
The highest and lowest ranking for each team (a non-rating is considered a low rating) is removed
Teams that receive only one point in the ballot are not considered “receiving votes”
For the first preseason poll, there is no column referencing a previous ranking, as polls are new and different from the ratings system
Frequency of polls occur bi-weekly
