COLUMBIA, S.C. – A 15 game win streak and a 20-2 overall record has allowed the Benedict College Lady Tigers to join in on the NACC.com DII women’s basketball Power 10 rankings, debuting at No. 10.
Benedict is the only SIAC team ranked in the top 10 and is one of two south region teams (Lee, 5th) to be ranked in the Power 10.
