The Claremont-Mudd-Scripps men slipped a bit from No. 12 to No. 15 in the D3Hoops.com poll released on Monday. The Stags (15-1) were dealt their first loss on Saturday falling to Whittier 88-85 in double overtime.
That's not the worst thing that can happen. A loss takes some of the pressure off and sometimes helps a team refocus. CMS will get anothet shot at Whittier anyway and the SCIAC automatic playoff bid is decided in the conference tournament anyway.
The Stags were also coming off a high from the previous game when they slipped past local Pomona-Pitzer on a last-second layup the previous game. So a letdown was not all that unexpected.
Here's this week's poll:
| 1 | Middlebury (24) | 16-0 | 623 | 1 |
