Last week we said there was still plenty of season left. Enough that the rankings could still change a lot by the end of the season. While most of the top-ranked teams held steady and remain in place, there was lot of shifting elsewhere in the latest Top 50.

That's because 12 teams from last week's rankings lost, including previously undefeated Carroll which saw its 71-match winning streak ended with a loss to Marist. While Marist jumped ahead of Carroll in this week's update, the results from last week made for a challenging time figuring out a new order of ranking.
