OLATHE, Kan. - Oklahoma City claimed 12 first-place votes to stay atop a Top 25 rating that saw the first seven spots stay unchanged from the last rating, which was released earlier this month.

Embry-Riddle (Fla.) remains No. 2, followed by Lindsey Wilson (Ky.), Southern Nazarene (Okla.), British Columbia, California State-San Marcos and Berry (Ga.), who claims the No. 7 spot to itself after being tied with Concordia (Ore.) in the last rating. Bethel (Ind.) moved to No. 8, while Concordia fell out of its tie at No. 7 and into the No. 9 position. Mobile (Ala.) checks in at No. 10.

The week's only newly rated team is at No. 25, where Concordia (Calif.) moved into the Top 25, while the poll's largest jump belongs to Lubbock Christian (Texas), who moved into a No. 14 tie with Rocky Mountain (Mont.).
