2023-24 NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25 - No. 4 (April 19)

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The top four teams in the newest NAIA Women's Golf Coaches' Top 25 remain the same as British Columbia receives 17 first-place votes. Keiser (Fla.) sits in second followed by Oklahoma City and SCAD Savannah (Ga.). Texas Wesleyan moves into the top five while Mount Mercy (Iowa) and Coastal Georgia reach the Top 25. 

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.
