LEBANON, Tenn. - - The Cumberland women's tennis team held firm at No. 19 in the NAIA Women's Tennis Coaches' Poll, as was announced by the league office this afternoon.

The Phoenix have played three matches since the previous poll, picking up two dominant wins in conference. Cumberland dominated Freed-Hardeman on Senior Day in Lebanon and also shut out the Georgetown Tigers just three days later.

CU then took on a point off Lindsey Wilson, but the Blue Raiders were unflinching in the one loss the Phoenix had in this poll.

The top eight teams remained unchanged in the latest NAIA Women's Tennis Top 25, with Keiser (Fla.) continuing to lead the way at No. 1 with 300 points and 11 first-place votes. Lindsey Wilson (Ky.) and Tennessee Wesleyan held steady at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively, as the top tier of the poll remained intact. 

Outside of that group, St. Thomas (Fla.) delivered the most notable climb, jumping from No. 13 into the top 10 at No. 9. Our Lady of the Lake (Texas) also moved up one spot to No. 15, while Indiana Wesleyan inched back into the top 20 at No. 20 after sitting at No. 21 in the previous poll.

Further down the rankings, Lewis-Clark State (Idaho) entered the poll at No. 21 after previously receiving votes, marking the largest overall jump this week. Coastal Georgia also continued its upward movement, climbing from No. 25 to No. 22.

The final poll will be released on Wednesday, April 22.
