Polls (4/18/16): Media #8 / Coaches #8

[OrangeXtreme]

There are no more unbeaten teams in Division I lacrosse after a crucial Ivy League showdown this weekend.

After surviving a midweek scare, Notre Dame remains No. 1 in the Cascade/Maverik Media Poll. It's far from unanimous, as three teams are receiving first-place votes (Notre Dame 15, Denver 8, Brown 6).

Denver, which topped St. John's in league play, is up to No. 2. Brown topped Yale, 14-12 in Providence on Saturday, and the Bears move up a spot to No. 3 in the poll. Yale drops to No. 4, while Maryland holds steady ground in the Top 5.

Navy won the rivalry game with Army and continues its climb: The Mids are ranked No. 7 in the poll.

The USILA/Nike Division I Coaches' Poll for Week 10 has been released.

Notre Dame is now No. 1 after Yale fell this weekend. The Irish are followed by Denver and Brown — the same order as the Media Poll, and also a similar spread of first-place votes among the top three teams.

The Coaches' Poll and Media Poll line up for the first eight teams but then some key differences: Loyola and Duke are ranked much higher by the coaches, and Air Force is ranked three spots lower.
