3-26-24 Top 25 Poll is now up:

https://nfca.org/divnews/ncaa3/diii-top-25-coaches-poll-3-26-24

(IMHO, it was more Whitewater and Stevens Point having great weeks last week than anything else that dropped Cortland and NE Wes out of the poll.  Warhawks went 6-0 and the Pointers 4-0 and both squads knocked off #14 Tufts).

Interesting to note that though Dominican was picked for 4th in the NACC Pre-Season Poll, the Star squad got the second highest number of 1st place votes (4) behind Concordia-WI (18). (seen as a potential 'dark-horse")

Regardless how softball goes the rest of the season, nice PR for a school athletically speaking known for its' soccer prowess a while back nationally.
