ANDERSON, S.C. -- The Anderson men's basketball team has been rewarded for its undefeated start to the 2009-10 campaign with a No. 25 national ranking in the NABC/Division II coaches' poll, after receiving votes in last week's poll. The Trojans (3-0) are off to their hottest start in school history and the ranking marks the first time AU has climbed into the Top 25 poll since becoming a four-year institution in 1991-92.
