NCAA Rankings 2017-18
141: McKenna In The Nick Of Time
Joey McKenna needing riding time but nevertheless got the job done against freshman phenom Nick Lee in a gutsy performance in front of a hostile crowd. McKenna moves back up into the top 10 at #7, one spot ahead of Lee.
Elsewhere, Nate Limmex beat then-#13 Cole Weaver to climb ahead of him in the rankings. At the bottom of the rankings, North Carolina's AC Headlee and Pitt's Nick Zanetta fall just outside the top 20 after tough losses, while Carter Happel — who has the best Twitter handle by the way — and Nic Gil slip into the rankings as the next two in.
