I am not 100% certain, but it does appear that a large percentage of voters for Women's DIII News have been reading our blog and have done their research on the 2007-2008 Lady Petrels Hoops team. The first two major preseason top 25 polls left the Petrels out, but after my criticism of the other polls, the Women’s DIII News poll gave our Ladies the #20 preseason ranking. I believe they were scared of being criticized like the other publications and knew that they had to do their research and make a true preseason top 25 poll. Now, you know how I feel about preseason rankings, but our Ladies are deserving of this and I am confident they will not let these voters down. #20 is only the beginning...#1 is the goal!
