NEW ORLEANS--The idle Western Washington men remained tenth in the latest USTFCCCA NCAA Division II national coaches' poll released Wednesday.
In fact, there was virtually no movement in the top 30 from last week's coaches' poll, other than a tie was broken for the number 18 spot in the national poll between Cal Poly Pomona, and Colorado Christian.
Colorado Christian dropped to number 19 while Cal Poly Pomona remained at number 18.
The top five men's teams in this week's poll are in order: Wingate, Colorado School of Mines, Adams State, West Texas A&M, and Grand Valley State.
Besides the Vikings, Western Oregon at number 23 is the only other men's team from the Great Northwest Athletic Conference in the national top 30.
In the national women's poll, idle Western Washington, dropped one spot to number 21, while Central Washington remained at number 26.
The top five women's teams remained the same--Adams State, Wingate, Colorado School of Mines, Chico State, and Western Colorado.
As was the case last week, Western and Central Washington are the only teams from the GNAC in the national top 30.
Western Washington is back in action Saturday, when it hosts the WWU Lake Padden Invitational in Bellingham, while Central Washington races on Friday afternoon along with Seattle Pacific in Spokane Valley at the Tyson Invitational, hosted by Gonzaga.
