Swimming joins women's volleyball, men's basketball in Top 10

Swimming joins women's volleyball, men's basketball in Top 10

Both swim teams made their debut in the USPORTS Top 10 this week. After a successful weekend at home for both swim teams,  the men come in at the seventh spot with the women’s team now fifth in the country. They join the women’s volleyball, fifth in this week’s edition and the men’s basketball team who are eighth. 

The full USPORTS release follows 

For the first time in program history, the Acadia Axewomen are the top-ranked U SPORTS women’s basketball team in the nation. 

The Axewomen (6-0) overtook Regina following a home-and-home sweep of Dalhousie last week, beating the Tigers 94-48 at home followed by an 88-49 road victory to maintain their undefeated season. The Cougars split a weekend set with unranked UNBC. 

Meanwhile, the Montreal Carabins (8-1) are back on top of the women’s volleyball rankings after 3-1 and 3-0 victories over No.10 McGill and Sherbrooke, respectively over the weekend. 

In other U SPORTS rankings, Carleton (men’s basketball), Alberta (men’s hockey, women’s hockey and men’s wrestling), UBC (men’s and women’s swimming), Trinity Western (men’s volleyball), and Brock (women’s wrestling) all remain national leaders for another week.
