In this week's power rankings, the Atlanta Harlequins and Phoenix Rugby secure their place among the elite, having qualified for the 2018 Club 7s National Championship. 

Meanwhile, in the Mid-Atlantic, the D.C. Furies enter the mix having suprisingly finished second at the Wilmington tournament. In contrast, a third-place finish for Northern Virginia sends them tumbling down the rankings to 17. Fortunately for NOVA, they'd still make the national championship event if it started tomorrow, as the Mid-Atlantic carries three seeds in the women's competition this year.
