Sure enough, USD is No. 3

Jump to Comments

Just as we speculated yesterday, the USD men’s basketball team did in fact climb to No. 3 in this week’s Division II coaches poll, released Tuesday afternoon.

Bentley (6-0) remained at No. 1, while Grand Valley State (8-0), USD (7-0), Rollins (5-0) and Winona State (8-1) round out the top five spots.

I won’t dwell on it too much, because frankly it doesn’t matter, but it is good to see USD getting national respect. The Coyotes are a dangerous team and have one of the deepest and most talented benches in the country.

For more on the team’s depth, read Vance Janak’s story in this week’s Volante.
