There aren’t many changes to the National Field Hockey Coaches poll after six weeks of Division II field hockey.
The list is littered with teams that pack a powerful punch and are having memorable seasons.
Taking a look at goals and goals against, Shippensburg is in a category of its own. They score an average of 4.23 per game and have only allowed 6 goals against. Kutztown scores 3.38 goals, and has 15 goals against. East Stroudsburg scores 3.47 per game and have only 19 goals against. And, Bloomsburg has scored an average of 3.40 goals per game and 15 goals against.
“Polls are announced every Tuesday during the field hockey playing season.
The Penn Monto/NFHCA Division II National Coaches Poll is voted on by NFHCA member coaches and has no bearing on selection to the NCAA Division II Field Hockey Championship.”
The following teams received the most votes cast by NFHCA members. The list is the rank, team name, record, and last position held in the prior poll.
