WACO, Texas—The UIndy football team climbed five spots to No. 17 in the final regular-season edition of the AFCA DII Coaches Poll, released Monday. The Greyhounds are coming off a GLVC-clinching win at Southwest Baptist and recently earned a return trip to the NCAA DII playoffs.
 
Nine teams from Super Region 3 appeared in this week's top 25, meaning two ranked squads—Ouachita Baptist and Davenport—were left out of teh playoff picture. Meanwhile, UIndy's postseason run starts at seven-ranked Pittsburg State this weekend.
