The two are the only West Region teams to receive votes in this week's poll. Though the poll has no impact on who eventually hosts the West Region playoffs in March, it may be a pretty good indicator of whom the front runners are.
The NCAA will announce the first of three regional ranking on Wednesday, Feb. 15. Those rankings will eventually determine the host school and the five at-large teams that will join the GNAC, PacWest and CCAA champions in the playoffs.
W.Washington currently leads Alaska-Anch. and Western Oregon by one game in the GNAC race. Meanwhile, the CCAA and PacWest races are both multi-tie affairs.
Chico State, Humboldt State, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal State Dominguez Hills and Cal State San Bernardino are in a five-way tie for the CCAA lead, all with 8-4 records.
Four teams - Cal Baptist, Dixie State, Chaminade and BYU-Hawaii - are tied for the PacWest lead with 6-1 marks. Cal Baptist is a provisional school and is not eligible for the playoffs.
