The Triangle Sweet 16: Trinity remains on top. Who else is among the region’s best?
Amazing things happen for teams that hold serve at hoe, no matter who they play.
Take Wake Forest, which keeps climbing the ladder after an impressive win at home against Wakefield. The top teams aren’t perfect, of course, and not a single team in this Sweet 16 has a record without a loss, but those top teams continue to look impressive against their competition.
For another week, Trinity holds down our top spot, and in a rare occurrence, not a single team debuted or dropped this week compared to last, though there was some shuffling around within the Top 16.
