The Ivy League has six teams in the top-15 of this week's Inside Lacrosse National Media poll. Brown paces the list Ivy contingent at No. 5 with No. 7 Princeton and No. 9 Yale rounding out the top-10. No. 12 Harvard, No. 13 Penn and No. 14 Cornell stay in the top-15. All six teams are in the top-10 of the national RPI.
