2022-23 NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25 Poll - Poll 5 (April 14)
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The latest addition of the NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25 Poll sees British Columbia receive 12 first-place votes. Dalton State (Ga.) earns the rest of the top votes while Keiser (Fla.) and Oklahoma City remains in third and fourth, respectively. Southeastern (Fla.) jumps into the Top Five.
Poll Methodology
• The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences.
• Each conference is represented by one rater.
• The Top 25 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. A team receives 30 points for each first-place vote, 29 for second-place and so on through the list.
• The highest and lowest ranking for each team (a non-rating is considered a low rating) is removed and the team’s ranking will be recalculated with an additional point added to each team for every ballot (including discounted ballots) that the teams appear on.
• Teams that receive only one point in the ballot are not considered “receiving votes.
