QUICKLY ... Without the benefit of data from last season being a contributing factor in this week's rankings, it was most definitely a "moving" week for many of the teams across the country. 

 

In just the second year of the program’s history, Grand Canyon is the new No. 1 men’s team in the country. Ashland moved from fifth to No. 2 marking their first time in the top three this season, and Saint Augustine’s is back in the top three at No. 3. Lincoln (Mo.) slipped from No. 1 – a position they have been since the preseason – to No. 6.

 

On the women’s side, the only stability came from No. 1 – Grand Valley State – still holding a considerable lead atop the cat-bird seat. Grand Canyon’s women are also enjoying the highest ranking in team history, moving from No. 4 to No. 2 this week. No.3 Adams State and No. 5 Ashland, along GVSU, were the only teams in the top 25 to stay in their original positions from the previous week.
