Harvard continued its winning ways with a pair of conference victories over No. 9 Princeton and Yale. The Crimson improved to 23-1-1 and hold first place in the USCHO.com Division I Women’s Poll<\/a>, the USCHO.com Pairwise Rankings (PWR)<\/a> and the ECAC standings.<\/p>\n

The top teams all held the status quo, as No. 2 Minnesota-Duluth won two games over Bemidji State in its final games of the regular season. The Bulldogs won the WCHA regular season title for the first time since the 1999-2000 season. No. 3 Minnesota, which won the title the last two years, has wrapped up second place already. The Gophers currently hold the No. 3 spot in the PWR. Dartmouth earned No. 4 in both rankings after two close wins against No. 10 Mercyhurst.<\/p>\n

The major movement of the poll came as No. 5 St. Lawrence and No. 6 Wisconsin both climbed one spot as New Hampshire fell two spots to No. 7 after losing the Hockey East title to No. 8 Providence in Saturday’s 7-4 Friar victory.<\/p>\n

Next week sees the final regular season games for most teams, as No. 1 Harvard takes on Brown, Cornell and Colgate, No. 4 Dartmouth travels to No. 9 Princeton and Yale, No. 5 St. Lawrence and No. 8 Providence each play Niagara once, No. 7 New Hampshire tackles Boston College in two games, and No. 9 Princeton hosts Vermont in addition to No. 4 Dartmouth.<\/p>\n

In the final weekend of conference play in the WCHA, No. 6 Wisconsin plays host to No. 3 Minnesota for two games, and while both teams are fixed in conference finish, both are playing to improve PWR position in hopes of NCAA selection in March.<\/p>\n

The USCHO.com Poll is compiled by U.S. College Hockey Online, and consists of 15 voters, including 11 coaches of Division I programs and four women’s hockey writers.<\/p>\n

The Pairwise Ranking attempts to mimic the method used by the NCAA Selection Committee to determine participants for the NCAA Division I women’s hockey tournament. The PWR compares only those at or above .500, judging them by five criteria: record against common opponents, record in last 16 games, head to head competition, record against other teams at or above .500, and the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI).<\/p>\n

The PWR can be reformatted and redistributed by any media outlet or person, provided USCHO’s URL (http:\/\/www.uscho.com\/) accompanies the results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
