Hutchinson CC Sports Information
Hutchinson Community College's program-record stay atop the NJCAA Division I National Rankings lasted 12 polling periods over two seasons and 343 consecutive calendar days.
Saturday's 67-41 loss at then-No. 3 Dodge City, knocked the Blue Dragons out of the top spot to No. 5 when the latest NJCAA rankings were released – one day later than normal because of the MLK holiday.
The Blue Dragons are now 17-1 overall and are tied with Dodge City atop the KJCCC at 11-1. The Blue Dragons have a pair of home games this week with Barton on Wednesday and Fort Hays Tech Northwest on Saturday.
With Hutchinson remaining in the Top 5, the Dragons have been ranked in the nation's Top 15 for 14 consecutive weeks and have been a ranked team for 23 consecutive polls, which started on November 13, 2023.
Northwest Florida State was the unanimous choice to take over the top spot in the rankings, putting together an 18-0 record. New Mexico Junior College (19-1), Three Rivers (15-2), Dodge City (16-2) and Hutchinson round out the Top 5.
Coffeyville joins Hutchinson and Dodge City as ranked teams from the KJCCC. The Ravens (14-3) are now No. 23 after receiving votes last week.
Murray State, a Blue Dragon opponent this season, is ranked No. 20 at 14-2.
The Blue Dragons have been ranked five times in program history.
