Magen David and Frisch share the top spot, though that will almost certainly change next week as voting came before Heschel beat Frisch on Monday night..

Now the logjam is at the bottom with Or Chaim joining on the strength of their defeat of Heschel, albeit an undermanned Heschel squad, in the Israel Becker Tournament semifinals. Ida Crown also joins - and they haven’t even played yet.
