 MORROW,
Ga. --- DECEMBER 20, 2006 --- The NABC Division II Top 25 Coach’s
Poll for
men’s basketball was released on Tuesday, and the Clayton State Lakers
maintained their No. 2 ranking
Clayton State
received 191 points in this week’s poll, trailing top-ranked and
defending NCAA Division II national champion Winona State by nine
