The Miami Hurricanes still have the lead in the ACC's Coastal Division despite a loss to North Carolina over the weekend, while the Maryland Terrapins are in first place in the Atlantic.

Maryland, which beat Virginia on the road Saturday, is the only team with an unblemished record in conference play. Florida State is on the Terps' heels at 3-1; the Seminoles bounced back from a loss last week to take down the Boston College Eagles with little trouble. Clemson is third in the Atlantic, followed by N.C. State, Wake Forest and BC.

In the Coastal Division, there is a logjam behind 3-1 Miami, as Virginia Tech, North Carolina and Duke are all 2-1. The Hokies have lost to the Tar Heels and beaten the Blue Devils this season; Duke and North Carolina will play this weekend. Georgia Tech was idle on Saturday and remains in fifth place with a 1-3 conference record. The Cavaliers bring up the rear at 0-3.
