RiverHawks Still in Top 10
Northeastern State dropped to No. 9 in this week's USA TODAY ESPN DIVISION II TOP 25 COACHES POLL.
The RiverHawks, 12-2 overall, lost their first NCAA Division II game of the year last week at Cameron and fell three spots in the latest rankings.
However, NSU wasn't the only Top 10 institution to suffer a setback last week. The poll features a new No. 1 as Lander (SC) takes over the top spot by virtue of Delta State's loss. Lander remained unbeaten at 17-0 and garnered 26 first-place votes. Arkansas Tech, which began the year as the nation's top team, moved up to No. 2, followed by Clayton State, Delta State and Fort Lewis.
Tarleton State cracked into the poll at No. 25 and is the only other Lone Star Conference institution in the rankings this week.
