ATLANTA – The 2019 MCLA National Championships powered by Under Armour is less than three weeks away, meaning its coming down to crunch time for Minn.-Duluth.

The Bulldogs (9-1), ranked No. 1 in the Under Armour MCLA Division I Weekly Coaches Poll from the first week of the season onward, have only one more gauntlet to run in order to go wire-to-wire.

All they have to do is win the toughest conference in the country.

One of the teams Minn.-Duluth may see on April 28 in the UMLC championship game is Grand Valley State (7-1), which has moved into the No. 2 spot.

Kennesaw State (9-2) sits at No. 3 despite a loss to Division I Clemson over the weekend.

Dayton (9-2) and St. Thomas (5-3) round out the Top 5 programs.

There were no new additions to the poll this week.
