As we've settled into play across the country, with places already approaching 30 games played, the Top 25 didn't see a ton of movement this week. Conference play is well under way in a lot of spots and quickly upcoming everywhere else, so as we continue on we will see teams separate themselves more and more and therefore bring continued stability to this ranking.

No change at the top, as this is the third week in a row with Central Florida at No. 1 and Central Arizona (preseason No. 1) right on their heels. Iowa Western stays locked in at No. 3 and has not lost yet. Walters State had another big week and stays at No. 4 overall as a result, LSU-Eunice, meanwhile, has taken over our top spot in Division II and climbs all the way to No. 5 overall this week as they stand unbeaten at 24-0. Much of the remainder of the top 10 stayed the same in terms of the representing teams, with South Mountain and Pearl River each up a spot to No.'s 6 and 7, respectively, and Florence-Darlington up a pair of spots to No. 8. Johnson County makes their Top 10 debut this week at No. 9 on the heels of a 19-3 start, and Gulf Coast State remains at No. 10 following a solid week for them.

Notable movement in spots 11-25 includes a couple of NorCal schools each rising in San Joaquin Delta (No. 15) and Folsom Lake (No. 18), and we welcome Connors State to the Top 25 for the first time this season, making their debut at No. 23 for now. San Jac looks to potentially have righted the ship and turned in a strong week, they have an up arrow next to their names and will continue rising if they keep winning.
