2023 St. Thomas NAPA Auto Parts Power Rankings | Week 3- Battle of the Unbeaten
The Power Rankings take into account a variety of stats and scenarios regardless of the divisional home of each team. The rankings are not a prediction of who would win in a head-to-head matchup nor are they exclusively ranked based on seasonal statistics. A hot streak or tournament success can launch a team on the cusp into contention while a series of setbacks could knock any club, even one in the top spot in their division, from the ranks. Good luck!
