23. UNC Wilmington Seahawks

Previous Ranking: NA

Record: 19-2 (8-0 CAA)

You absolutely need to check out UNCW if you haven’t already. The reigning CAA champs are dominating their competition again this season. The Seahawks recently took down second-place College of Charleston on the road to hold a solid lead on the CAA.

C.J. Bryce currently leads the team with 17.1 points per contest, along with 5.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists. Last year’s leading scorer, Chris Flemmings, is right behind him at 15.9 points per game. Denzel Ingram and Devontae Cacok round out the top scorers with 15.4 and 12.8 points, respectively. Cacok is also averaging an impressive double-double with 10.4 rebounds a night. This team looks ready to run through the CAA and into March with how they are playing right now.
