The Fort Hays State women’s basketball team climbed up both national rankings in the first regular season version of each poll, released Tuesday (11\/20). The Tigers are now ranked 11th in the WBCA Division II Coaches Poll and No. 16 in the D2SIDA Media Poll, up from 12th and 22nd in the preseason, respectively.<\/p>\n

The Tigers opened the year 2-0 last weekend in Hays, defeating Southwest Minnesota State and Upper Iowa by a combined 68 points. FHSU ranks second in the country in scoring defense, allowing just 46 points per contest, while ranking third with a +12.0 turnover margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
