Football Cracks Top 10 in Latest Coaches Poll

WACO, Texas – The undefeated UIndy football team (5-0, 3-0 GLVC) moved up yet again in the AFCA Division II Coaches Poll, coming in at No. 10 this week. Coming off a 59-7 rout at William Jewell over the weekend, the Greyhounds earned a top-10 spot for the first time since the final regular season poll of 2017.
 
After starting the year at No. 16 in the preseason poll, the Hounds have moved up each of the last five weeks. This week's bump was aided by a home loss by Grand Valley State, who fell in dramatic fashion to Ashland, 20-17. UIndy is now one of seven undefeated teams remaining in Super Region Three, including GLVC rival and poll newcomer, No. 24 Truman.
 
In addition, the Greyhounds made their 31st straight appearance in the coaches' top 25, upping their own program record for consecutive time spent in the national rankings.
