Stanford, Georgia Women Tie for Top Ranking in Final CSCAA Women’s Dual Meet Poll

EVANSTON, Illinois, February 16. STANFORD University and the University of Georgia women's swimming and diving teams wrapped up the 2010 dual meet season atop the CSCAA/CollegeSwimming.com Division I Poll. The two teams tied for the top spot with 734 points.

The undefeated Cardinal moved up from fourth place following a month that saw them earn wins over a trio of top ten teams. Georgia continued to see its first-place votes erode with each successive poll, but retained just enough to finish in a dead heat with Stanford.

Texas received eight first-place votes to rank third. The Longhorns dealt Georgia its only loss, but suffered a setback of their own falling 201-152 to fourth-ranked Arizona. Despite the win, the Wildcats dropped two spots to finish the poll in fourth.

Fifteen teams changed position in the latest poll. Ohio State made the biggest jump. The Buckeyes upset 17th-ranked Michigan to jump into the top twenty-five for the first time this season. In all fifty teams earned votes in the final poll which measures teams' relative dual-meet strength.

Founded in 1922, the College Swimming Coaches Association of America, Inc. (CSCAA), is the oldest coaches association in the United States of America.
