For a second straight week, the Fort Hays State Lady Tigers are receiving votes in the WBCA Division II Top-25 poll. The Lady Tigers are actually receiving one less vote than they did a week ago despite picking up two wins and moving to 5-1.
Four MIAA teams are ranked again this week led by Emporia State who takes over the top-spot. Washburn is up 11 spots to No. 7 and despite suffering their first loss of the season, Pittsburg State moves up two spots to No. 8. Central Missouri moves up three to No. 21.
