Findlay, Ohio- The College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) has released the October edition of the Division II Top 25 dual meet poll, with the Drury men and Colorado Mesa women starting the year ranked number one.

The committee, made up of Division II coaches, evaluates and ranks the nation's top 25 dual meet teams based on several factors. These include head-to-head dual meet results, performances since the last rankings, season-long achievements, dual meet records, roster changes (such as injuries), and data from the SwimCloud Simulator. It's important to note that the poll is not intended to predict top finishers in a championship meet format.
