Illinois Wesleyan stayed at No. 4. Wittenberg checked in at seventh and was followed by former No. 1 UT Tyler - who fell seven spots - Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and Central.
 
California Lutheran and Saint John's return to the ranking at Nos. 20 and 24, respectively. Huntingdon made its debut in a tie at No. 21.
The SCAC is well representated in the report with Schreiner earning a spot at #6, Texas Lutheran #16, and Trinity #17.
The Pirates host these three nationally ranked teams as well as #25 Concordia at next week's West Region Invitational that starts Monday morning at Berry Creek.
