Teams to Keep an Eye on (as of 9/17/09)

Coast Guard and Plymouth State are undefeated. UMASS Boston is also undefeated within the New England region. Tufts (MIT Invitational Champions) lone loss on the season came at the hands of UMASS Boston, a five-setter, that was Tufts' first match of the season. Tufts and UMASS Boston rematch on Tuesday 9/29/09 at Tufts. Wesleyan appears much better than their record (eight of nine matches in-region have been against teams in the top 15) and finished fourth at the MIT Invitational. Middlebury is off to a strong start and is playing more New England teams after a few weeks of isolation in northern Vermont (and venturing to New York).
