The Vulcans remained at No. 2 in the West Region Poll, with Point Lomza Nazarene staying at the top.

Dallas Baptist University (5-0-1) remained atop the Division II Top 25 this week. Previously ranked No. 16 Minnesota State University-Mankato went 1-0-1 last week to drop to No. 18, while Mississippi College fell to No. 19 after going 1-1 with a loss to No. 13 Lee University.
