CSCAA DII Top-25 Polls
 
RICHMOND, VA. – The Colorado School of Mines men's and women's swimming & diving teams both made significant jumps in the December edition of the College Swimming and Diving Coaches' Association of America's (CSCAA) Division II Top 25 Dual Meet Rankings released Friday.
 
The Oredigger men went from receiving votes to #20 in the nation. Mines' women leapt from #18 to #12. Both improvements come after an extremely successful November trip to the TYR/CMU Invitational in Grand Junction, Colo, where both teams overhauled their respective program record books. The polls are voted on by a committee consisting of Division II coaches and is meant to reflect the top dual meet teams in all of NCAA Division II. The national rankings are not meant to predict the top finishers in a championship meet format.
 
Drury's men and Tampa's women each checked in at #1 in the nation. Colorado Mesa was the only other RMAC squad in the men's poll, slotting at #6. Fellow RMAC squads in the women's rankings included #3 Colorado Mesa and #16 Simon Fraser with Oklahoma Christian receiving votes.

Mines returns to action on Friday, Jan. 2 at the University of Denver. A full preview and any live coverage information will be available leading up to the dual at www.minesathletics.com.
