Kenyon, Emory Return to Top of Division III

After a week away, Kenyon College has returned to the top of the 2013-14 Endless Pools/CollegeSwimming.com Men's Division III Top 25.  Emory's women returned to the top spot for the first time since the first week's poll. 

A number of invites shook up the Division III Top Ten.  In addition to Kenyon, the Denison men jumped up three spots to number two, closely followed by MIT and Johns Hopkins.  Hopkins' women remained in second just ahead of Denison and Kenyon. 

The ranking accounts for teams' top performances over the preceding month and is the only objective ranking of swimming for NCAA Divisions I, II, and III, NAIA, and NJCAA.  The  rankings utilize a new point system based on a 1,100 point scale.  The new scale uses NCAA time standards and a percentile ranking of all times over the past four years.  (Read More at our Point FAQ.
