Wittenberg and Wooster tabbed for NCAC repeat
Wittenberg's women and Wooster's men were tabbed as the favorites in voting by coaches and media at the NCAC media day. Wittenberg received 15 of 21 first-place votes from the media and eight of nine from the coaches to outdistance Denison.
"It's always an honor to receive this type of preseason recognition," says 13th-year Wittenberg coach Pam Evans-Smith. "What really matters, though, is being there to receive the championship trophy at the end of the season."
Wooster earned 26 first-place votes in the men's balloting, 18 of 21 from the media and eight of nine from the coaches. Wittenberg was second in both polls. "We enter every season with the intention of winning a conference championship," says 12th-year Wooster coach Steve Moore. "This year is no different. I think our team will welcome the additional challenge of being the preseason favorite."
