Amherst College remains our top team – they are followed by conference foes Bowdoin College and Tufts University – but this week, we welcomed Brandeis University to our weekly Noontime Sports Top 10 New England D-III Women’s Basketball Poll.
Brandeis has enjoyed a successful start to its 2019-20 season, winning four of five contests while their lone loss came against Tufts last month. The Judges rebounded from their four-point setback three days later with an 89-49 win over Salem State University.
This week, the Judges host Babson College on Tuesday, December 3rd before visiting Clark University on Thursday, December 5th. They will conclude the week with a visit to Johnson & Wales University on Saturday, December 7th.
UMass Dartmouth moved-up one spot – the Corsairs have won six of seven contests thus far and will face some challenges this week against Rhode Island College on Wednesday, December 4th followed by Castleton University on Saturday, December 7th.
