WU football cracks Top 25
Rising steadily like steam from a chimney, the Washington University football team has made an entrance in the AFCA Division III poll for the first time since 1996.
The Bears debut at the 24 spot this week after knocking off then-No. 15 Albion College by a score of 17-7 last Saturday.
On Saturday, Larry Kindbom’s Bears look to further their ascent and boost their record to 5-0 against the Rhodes College Lynx.
No other UAA squads appear in the rankings, but Carnegie Mellon, WU’s opponent on October 13, waits in the wings only three teams back from the Top 25.
