Ashland University's football team has stayed at No. 13 in the latest American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Division II Coaches' Top 25 poll, released on Monday (Sept. 28).
The Eagles are 4-0 overall and in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference following their 40-28 win over Findlay on Saturday (Sept. 26) night at Jack Miller Stadium/Martinelli Field. Ashland, in first place in the GLIAC South Division, is one of three GLIAC teams in the Top 25, along with Ferris State (fourth) and Michigan Tech (T-18th).
The No. 13 ranking continues to be Ashland's highest in the AFCA poll since the final poll of the 2012 season (No. 9).
After two straight home games, Ashland will go back on the road for a Week 5 GLIAC matchup with Malone on Saturday (Oct. 3) at 2 p.m. at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton.
