Hutchinson CC Sports Information
For the 10th-consecutive poll, the Hutchinson Community College football is the No. 1-ranked team in the NJCAA Division I Football rankings.
As it has been through those 10 weeks, right behind the Blue Dragons is No. 2 Iowa Western.
No. 1 Hutchinson (9-0), the 2023 Jayhawk Conference champions, will play host to No. 2 Iowa Western (10-0) at 1 p.m. on Saturday at Gowans Stadium.
For the eighth-straight week, the Blue Dragons received 9 of 10 first-place votes and Iowa Western received the other first-place vote.
This will be the second-straight season that the Blue Dragons and Reivers meet in the regular season as the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the national polls. Last season the Blue Dragons rallied late to defeat Iowa Western 29-27 in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
This will be the first 1 vs. 2 matchup at Gowans Stadium since October 21, 2010 when No. 2 Hutchinson played host to No. 1 Butler.
Hutchinson has now been ranked in 30 consecutive NJCAA rankings.
Kilgore (7-1) remained No. 3 in Monday's rankings, but there is a new No. 4 as Copiah-Lincoln (8-1) edged past Snow College for fourth place.
Dodge City (6-3) remained No. 9 this week. The Conquistadors are the only other Jayhawk Conference team ranked. Highland is receiving votes.
