After a pair of convincing home victories last week, the Fort Hays State women’s basketball team climbed two spots in the latest release of both national polls, released Tuesday (Jan. 29). The Tigers moved up to No. 6 in the WBCA Division II Coaches Poll while the squad jumped to fifth in the D2SIDA National Media Poll.<\/p>\n

The Tigers are one of three teams to earn at least one first-place vote in either poll this week, earning one first-place vote in the media rankings. The Black and Gold picked up 460 points in the voting process in the coaches poll, just two points behind fifth place.<\/p>\n

Fort Hays State played three games as the sixth-ranked team in the coaches poll earlier this season when they sat in that position in weeks four and five (Dec. 11 & 18, 2018). The Tigers are 7-1 all-time when they are ranked sixth in the coaches poll.<\/p>\n

The Tigers are one of two MIAA programs recognized in the rankings, joined by No. 23 Central Missouri in the coaches poll.<\/p>\n

Fort Hays State heads back out on the road for three conference contests over the next two weeks, opening with a Saturday afternoon trip to take on Nebraska-Kearney. First tip from Kearney, Neb. is set for 2:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

Below are the complete national polls for January 29, 2019.<\/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
