College rankings

Northwestern came in at 16 (up from 21) in the latest NSCAA/adidas DI rankings, but has the top spot in the RPI. Congratulations to the Wildcats. If you want to see one of the top teams in the nation by either measure, then head to Lakeside Field this month; the Wildcats open a four-game home stand on Wednesday against Western Illinois.

Kudos to DePaul for coming in 18 in the RPI. The Blue Demons are unranked in DI, not having received a single vote this week. Go figure.

In DIII, Dominican moved into the 19 slot in the NSCAA/adidas poll, while Wheaton dropped out from its spot at 17.
