The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for March 17, 1993:
Teams were given 15 points for a first-place vote, 14 for a second-place
vote, and so on down to 1 point for a fifteenth-place vote. Total first-
place votes are in parentheses.
Yes, the poll is still going, and will keep going throughout the postseason
if responses keep coming in. The St. Patrick's Day edition of the HOCKEY-L
poll has a team in green (Clarkson) knocking RPI out of the #8 spot they had
gotten the week before. All of the top 12 teams in this week's poll
appeared on at least ten of the 11 responses sent in, so we're getting
pretty close to a consensus on the NC$$ seedings (maybe).
Composite poll (11 responses):

I don't know where the College Hockey USA coaches' poll comes from, but it
takes the place of the Albany _Times-Union_ poll this week (ATU may have
ended for the season).

In looking at the ratings composite, I think we may have achieved a first
this week -- the teams in the HOCKEY-L poll are the same top 15, in a
slightly different order, as those that appear in RPICH.
