TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The FCSAA released its weekly men’s and women’s basketball coaches’ polls on Wednesday and Tallahassee Community College continued to have a presence in the upper half of the rankings.
In the men’s poll, Tallahassee moved back up one spot to No. 5, thanks to a 61-58 victory at Chipola College in its most recent game January 13. The Eagles supplanted Gulf Coast State College who dropped to No. 10 after losing a pair of Panhandle Conference games last week.
The top four in the poll remained intact from last week – Northwest Florida State College, Eastern Florida State College, Broward College and St. Petersburg College.
The College of Central Florida leads the second half of the poll and is followed by Palm Beach State College, Daytona State college, Pensacola State College and Gulf Coast State.
In the women’s poll, Tallahassee and Northwest Florida State swapped spots, resulting in a No. 3 ranking for the Eagles. Tallahassee dropped a 64-58 game at top-ranked and then-undefeated Chipola on January 13. Northwest Florida State then handed the Indians their first loss of the season on Saturday, helping the Raiders move into the No. 2 spot.
Despite the loss, Chipola continues to lead the poll.
Central Florida is ranked fourth followed by Florida State College at Jacksonville, Gulf Coast State, Eastern Florida State, Daytona State, St. Petersburg and Santa Fe College.
