Oklahoma City kept hold of the top spot for the seventh consecutive poll.
On the men’s side, Oklahoma Christian jumped 10 spots from its preseason ranking to the No. 1 spot y. The Eagles earned seven first-place votes for 536 points, edging second-ranked Savannah College of Art and Design’s (Ga.) six first-place votes and 533 points.
