ANDERSON, S.C. - After slipping to fourth in last week's poll, the Anderson University women's basketball team posted three wins in a six-day span and as a result, the Trojans moved back to third in the most recent weekly Southeast Region Media Poll, as announced by the regional committee Monday afternoon.
Limestone was a unanimous selection to hold on to the top spot in the poll, with Columbus State remaining in the No. 2 slot. The Trojans regained the third spot after earning home wins over both Queens and Tusculum and posting a convincing road victory past Coker on Saturday.
Augusta moved up one spot to fourth, while Clayton State fell two spots to fifth in the weekly rankings after suffering back-to-back Peach Belt Conference losses. Lander and Francis Marion stayed steady at sixth and seventh.
Emmanuel, which is in its reclassification to NCAA Division II, is tied for eighth alongside North Georgia, with Carson-Newman dropping to 10th after losing twice on the road last week. Georgia College and Wingate both dropped out of this week's poll.
