SKILLMAN, N.J. - In the ever-changing women's team rankings, North Carolina has provided a little bit of stability by holding onto No. 1 in the Campbell/ITA College Tennis Rankings for the second straight week. Meanwhile, the Virginia men continue to hold the top spot for the seventh-straight week, since capturing the ITA Men's Team Indoor title, but are cognizant of the hard-charging Ohio State Buckeyes who leaped past Tennessee into second. 

Even though the Tar Heels were top-ranked at the beginning of what has turned out to be a March Madness in the women's team rankings, they recently captured their first-ever victory as the nation's No. 1 team. And they did so in dramatic fashion, avenging a loss to second-ranked Northwestern, in what was a rematch from the ITA Women's Team Indoor Finals.

Just as it did when the teams met in the final in February, the doubles point came down to the top position. The Northwestern duo of Lauren Lui and Maria Mosolova eventually completed the comeback and won in a tiebreak, 9-8 (6). The setback did not appear to affect the Tar Heels, however, as the hosts ran out to early leads on four of six singles courts. It was the bottom of the lineup, a strength for much of the season for UNC, that finally put Northwestern away.

In a dog-eat-dog season in which the top women's programs continue to beat up on one another, the top eight teams in the Campbell/ITA College Tennis Rankings continue to be separated by a mere 10 points. 

Follow the Leader: For the men, following Virginia is (in order): Ohio State, Tennessee, USC, Texas, Florida, Stanford, Georgia, UCLA, and Kentucky. On the women's side, North Carolina is followed by: Baylor, Florida, Northwestern, Duke, Notre Dame, UCLA, Michigan, Miami (FL) and Clemson. 

Conference Count: Men's Top 25: ACC - 6; Big 12, Pac-10 and SEC - 5; Big Ten - 2; Big East and West Coast - 1. Women's Top 25: ACC, Pac-10 and SEC - 6; Big East and Big Ten - 3; Big 12 - 1.  Each of the six BCS Conferences have at least one team appearing in the men's and women's top 10, with the SEC claiming four of the top 10 spots in the men's rankings and the ACC with four of the top 10 on the women's side.

Spring and Fall: Each week there are many shifts among the men's and women's teams appearing in the Campbell/ITA College Tennis Rankings. Listed below are the teams appearing in the top 50, making the most movement and worth keeping an eye on.

Twice as Nice: Thirteen schools have both their men's and women's programs ranked inside this week's top 25. The men's program ranking is listed first, followed by the women's program ranking. Baylor (11/2), California (17/11), Florida (6/3), Florida State (22/17), Georgia (8/13), Georgia Tech (25/20), North Carolina (20/1), Ohio State (2/25), Stanford (7/12), Tennessee (3/14), UCLA (9/7), USC (4/18) and Washington (21/23).
