KANSAS CITY, MO - The Lindsey Wilson College women's basketball team is No. 24 in the latest NAIA Division I Women's Basketball Coaches' Top-25 Poll, released on Monday by NAIA officials.



The Blue Raiders (16-8) climbed one spot in the poll despite losing their only game of the week last week to then-No. 6-ranked University of the Cumberlands. Lindsey Wilson received 72 voting points from the national raters.

The national ranking is the 20th straight ranking for the Blue Raiders dating back to last season.

The Blue Raiders are joined in the poll by four other teams from the Mid-South Conference; University of the Cumberlands (KY), Shawnee State (OH) University, Georgetown (KY) College and Campbellsville (KY) University.

The MSC leads all conferences with the five ranked teams in the poll. This week's poll marks the seventh straight week that five teams from the MSC enjoy a national ranking.

Oklahoma City University (21-1) remains atop the national poll for the second straight week. The Stars received 312 voting points and all 12 first-place votes. Freed-Hardeman University (21-3) is No. 2 followed by Union University (22-2) and Lee University (23-1).

The poll is voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each conference, the independents and unaffiliated groups. The next poll is scheduled to be announced on Monday, February 13.
