Conference Tilts Between Top Teams All Around the Nation in Week 12

This will be the biggest weekend of the year so far in the conference races. There are a number of conferences around the country where the top two or three teams in the standings are facing off this weekend, with only three weekends to play at the most. That makes this weekend a very important one to follow as a fan, as we'll see some conference races tighten up real quick, or maybe see the overwhelming favorite break out.

Sweeps Reign Supreme in Week 10 Action

It was a banner weekend for the most recent top 25, comparatively, to most weeks. Five of the top nine, six of the top 12, and seven of the top 14 teams in last week's PerfectGame.org Division II Top 25 swept their opponents this past weekend. Could it have been the beginning of taking over some conference races for some of the nation's top teams? Additionally, we had a very competitive D2 Diamond Series of the Week that might have shown that the West region is the most competitive we have right now.

Many Questions, Few Answers After Nine Weeks of Play

Nobody seems to want to be breaking out from a crowded list of rankings except for a couple teams. Is someone going to usurp Tampa from the top spot soon? Will Chico State keep dominating the CCAA?

Can we get more than one or two teams sweeping their opponents in a weekend?

So many questions, so few answers. Let's see how this past weekend shook out.
