The regular season of CWPA play is complete for the Southern Division schools and so is the the seeding for the Southern Division championships.It was Princeton who raced through league play unscathed, but it was not easy as they narrowly escaped in a 9-8 win. There is a sizable gap between top seeded Princeton and No. 3 seeded Brown since when those two teams met Brown lost 18-8, but they did upset the Michigan Wolverines 7-5 which could have been an anomaly.
Here are the final standings:
