CSCAA Poll Remains Largely Unchanged

Phoenix, AZ , December 3rd, 2007

While there's controversy atop the Bowl Championship Series rankings, there's little acrimony among the pollsters in Division I swimming.  The CSCAA released their poll and not only was there no change among the top spots, there was no change at all in the women's top twenty-five. 

The lack of change owes largely to the lack of dual meets, with few warranting major shifts in the national rankings. While the women offered little change, the men's ranking saw only minor shifts: Stanford and Arizona traded places, with the Cardinal jumping to #2 behind Texas and the Wildcats dropping to third. Penn State showed the biggest gain, moving from the #19 to the #16 spot while Southern Cal fell four places, from 16th to 20th.

This year’s poll will be published eight times and the champions will be crowned on February 27, 2008. Pollsters representing eight conferences along with two at-large voters have the task of ranking the top dual meet teams in the nation bi-weekly throughout the season. Additionally, the group of pollsters is completely different for the men’s and women’s rankings. This poll should not be confused with the results of the NCAA Division I Swimming & Diving championships that will take place in March.

The next poll results will be released on December 13, 2007.
