On February 1st, the NWAACC released the 5th Basketball Coaches Polls of the 2010-11 season. There were lots of changes on each poll except for the #1 spot on each poll – those teams remained in the top spot – Tacoma CC Men & Columbia Basin Women.  Neither Trojan team was in the top 8, but that is ok, they are still playing some great basketball.  The  next poll will be released on Feb. 15th.
