LOUISVILLE, Ky. \u2014 Texas Lutheran finished the season as the unanimous No. 1 in the NFCA Top 25 Coaches Poll after winning its first NCAA Division III national championship last week.<\/p>\n

The (40-8) Bulldogs were undefeated in five games at the NCAA championship finals site in Tyler, Texas, and swept Emory 12-4 and 6-1 in the best-of-three championship series last Monday.<\/p>\n

Emory (39-14), meanwhile, finished second in the rankings after finishing second nationally. The Eagles suffered their only two losses at the finals site on the final day to Texas Lutheran.<\/p>\n

The six other NCAA championship finals teams all made the top eight, with third-place national finishers Eastern Connecticut State (36-13) and Trine (37-8) ranked third and fourth; fifth-place finishers Williams (39-7) and Illinois Wesleyan (39-10) at fifth and sixth; and seventh-place finishers St. Thomas (43-7) and Randolph-Macon (30-17) at seventh and eighth, respectively.<\/p>\n

Linfield (39-8-1) and Lynchburg (37-15), who lost to the two national finalists in the NCAA super regionals, complete the top 10, followed by two-time national champion Virginia Wesleyan (42-6), which was upset by Lynchburg in the NCAA regionals.<\/p>\n

The NFCA Division III Top 25 Poll is selected by eight NCAA Division III head coaches representing the eight NCAA regions. Final 2019 records are listed, with first-place votes in parentheses.<\/p>\n
