Greyhounds climb to 18th in AFCA poll

WACO, Texas – Winners of five straight, the UIndy football team continued its climb up in the American Football Coaches Association Division II Top 25 Poll.  The Greyhounds (7-1, 4-0 GLVC) moved up two spots to No. 18 this week after last weekend's 52-0 shutout of visiting Kentucky Wesleyan.

The latest AFCA release marked a 12th consecutive appearance for UIndy in the national poll, dating back to last season.  The Hounds are a perfect 6-0 versus D-II opponents and are one of only two teams (Truman) still unbeaten in Great Lakes Valley Conference play.
 
UIndy travels up I-65 Saturday, Nov. 2 for their final road game of the 2013 regular season – a match-up versus in-state rival Saint Joseph's.  The Pumas (6-2, 3-1) are just one game back of the Greyhounds in the conference standings.
