Northwest DIII

1. Lewis & Clark*

Lewis & Clark was dominant and took advantage of a tired Whitman (who had just won 13-12 in semis over Puget Sound) to take the Northwest DIII crown and a spot at Nationals with a 13-6 victory. Puget Sound lost to both finalists by just one point (Whitman in semis, Lewis & Clark in pool play).

Puget Sound dominated the five team field to take the bid to DIII Nationals.

OHIO VALLEY

1. UC Santa Barbara
2. Cal Poly SLO

Women’s D-I
