The Lakehead Thunderwolves moved up to No. 5 in this week's CIS Top 10, despite only gaining a split in their weekend series against Waterloo. However, other top teams also recorded losses over the weekend which resulted in the Alberta Golden Bears returning to a familiar spot in the rankings; No. 1. UNB and York had the biggest drops in the rankings while Calgary is this week's newcomer.
