NCAA Champion Registered: February 03, 2003 Posts: 2006 | Hope Midland stays healthy...it's always a factor in any sport. They have a legit shot at the top if things shake out right. Rankings didn't include Alex Bridgeford at 133 or 141 because he isn't eligible till 2nd semester. I feel that Clayton will go higher than 6th also and maybe even bring in a team mate with him into the all american rounds. Good luck men...time to get after it. |

Remember DII has lost perinatal powers NDSU, Portland State, UND, SDSU, and a few others that I have surely missed. I feel DII needed these schools to move up to keep its level of competitiveness. |
