NOT
NYIT (-6)
The Bears’ 8-7 home loss to unranked Bentley dropped them to No. 10. They corralled just six of 17 draw controls and were outshot 23-17 in the their first defeat of the season.

NEW
Bloomsburg
The Huskies enter thanks in part to an 8-4 road win over then-No. 18 Shippensburg Saturday. Five Huskies scored during the decisive first half, and Bloomsburg impressively led by as many as six goals in their PSAC win. Goalie Angela DiPasquale surrendered just two goals through the game’s first 53 minutes.
Kutztown
The unbeaten Bears have outscored their last three foes 51-14, but they’ll get a test Tuesday at home against Shippensburg. Makayla Bowman averages 4.5 goals per game for Kutztown.
OUT
Indiana (Pa.)
