Lehigh was second with 39 points and two first-place nods while new member Richmond took third (30). Bucknell, the defending champion, received the remaining pair of first-place votes and was fourth in the poll (29). Navy (24) and Holy Cross rounded out the poll.
The Terriers return three All-Patriot League honorees from last year, including senior and 2014 championship runner-up Kristyna Pavlickova.
