The Norfolk State men’s basketball team has made its way back into the national rankings.
The Spartans earned the No. 25 slot in the latest CollegeInsider.com Men’s Mid-Major Top 25 poll, which the website released on Monday evening. Norfolk State (3-0) is the only HBCU featured in the rankings.
This year, entering its 26th season, the mid-major poll is made up of teams from the following conferences: America East, Atlantic Sun, Big Sky, Big South, Big West, Coastal Athletic, Conference USA, Horizon, Independents, Ivy, Metro Atlantic, Mid-American, Mid-East, Missouri Valley, Northeast, Ohio Valley, Patriot, Southern, Southland, Southwestern, Summit, Sun Belt, West Coast, and Western Athletic.
The recognition marks Norfolk State’s first ranking in the mid-major poll this season, reaching as high as No. 19 during the 2023-24 season.
Norfolk State hits the road for its first away test on Tuesday night, facing William & Mary (1-1) at 7 p.m. at Kaplan Arena.
