Haskins Award

Moving up from No. 7 and with wins in all four of its fall tournaments, Anderson is No. 1 in the Oct. 28 Bushnell/Golfweek Division II Coaches Poll.

The Trojans, who received nine first-place votes and 404 points, defeated numerous poll regulars in a strong McCoy Wright Currahee Collegiate Invitational on Tuesday to cement their undefeated fall season.

West Florida (two first-place votes, 402 overall points) and Barry (five first-places, 399 points) were within five points of the Trojans, while Grand Valley State, who also won four fall tournaments, leaped from No. 17 to No. 4. Oklahoma Christian (one first-place vote), Lee, Western Washington, Henderson State, Sonoma State, and North Georgia complete the top 10.

Twenty-four others received votes.
