Pilots drop from 13th to 14th in NAIA Polls

February 09, 2005

Shreveport, LA---Despite going 2-0 on the week with an 81-78 win over the Southern University of New Orleans and a 101-80 win over Belhaven, the LSUS Pilots dropped one spot in the NAIA national rankings this week. The Pilots are currently ranked 14th in the country with a rematch versus the 3rd ranked University of Mobile Rams scheduled for 7:00pm Saturday night in Mobile, AL. The Rams remain undefeated in the GCAC and are responsible for the Pilots only loss in conference play as they defeated the Pilots 108-101, January 15th, at the Dock.
