On the women's side, Assumption received six of the nine first-place votes, and 62 points overall. They were followed by So. Connecticut (54 points) and Bentley (52 points).
On the men's side, Bentley received 34 points and four first-place nods, followed by So. Connecticut (28), Pace (27), and Le Moyne (24).
