Nice ranking but 1 big mistake. Isn’t the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) a division II school and considered a hbcu? I know there nationally ranked in the D2 top 25 and no other black college is. Shouldn’t that make them #1 in this poll or at least mentioned????????????
I have to agree with the poster above me. I just looked at the Usa today/wbca rankings and in deed the University of District of columbia is ranked #23 in the nation and is 14-2 on the current season. Major overlook for whoever came up with these ranking. I looked at there schedule and see they beat d2 powerhouse cal (pa) by 10 and beat fayetteville state and st. Pauls once and bowie state twice and I know for a fact UDC is a hbcu. By looking into that they should be ranked #1
