2023-24 NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25 - No. 3 (April 5)
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Once again, British Columbia sits atop the leaderboard of the NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25, receiving all 18 first-place votes. The top five remains the same with Keiser (Fla.) and Oklahoma City remaining second and third, while SCAD Savannah (Ga.) jumps Dalton State (Ga.) for fourth place, respectively.
Ranking Methodology
• The ranking 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 rater 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.
