The College Hockey Discussion List Poll for March 16, 1994: 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. Not surprisingly, Colorado College's first-round loss to #10 seed Michigan Tech cost them big-time in the HOCKEY-L poll, as they slid five places to tenth. No big gainers this week; the new #5, Mass Lowell, made the biggest jump -- two spots, as did Western Michigan. Composite poll (18 responses): Last Record Pts. Week Range 1.
