KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has unleashed the regular season edition of the Women's Flag Football Top-10 Coaches' Poll.
Milligan University picked up 26 points in the poll as one of two remaining undefeated squads in the rankings to move up from No. 9 in the preseason to No. 7 in the current poll.
The Buffaloes currently sit at 18-0 with two regular season contests remaining to achieve an unbeaten record. The Buffaloes are outscoring their opposition by a 698-104 margin, averaging 43.6 points per game and allowing just 6.5 per tilt.
The 2026 regular season will see its conclusion this week, as the Buffaloes play Emmanuel (Ga.) on the road on Wednesday, April 15 and Campbellsville (Ky.) on Saturday, April 18. Both games will start at 6 p.m. Following those contests, the Buffaloes will take part in a postseason tournament for NAIA Independents in Indianapolis on April 23-24 to decide who receives an automatic bid to the NAIA Invitational Tournament in Bradenton, Fla. on May 6-9 at IMG Academy.
