Despite a pair decisive wins last week, the Hutchinson Community College women's basketball team slipped one spot in this week's NJCAA Division I Rankings to No. 6.

The Blue Dragons (19-1) defeated Barton 63-46 and Fort Hays Tech Northwest 114-39 last week to remain in a first-place tie in the Jayhawk Conference with Dodge City with 13-1 records. This week the Blue Dragons play at Colby and then play Independence on Saturday afternoon at the Sports Arena.

The big shake-up in the rankings was No. 6 Chipola defeating No. 1 Northwest Florida State 67-57 on Saturday in Mariana, Florida.

The new No. 1 team is New Mexico Junior College. Chipola jumped from No. 6 to No. 2 and Northwest Florida State dropped two spots to No. 3. Three Rivers is No. 4, Dodge City is No. 6 and the Blue Dragons are No. 6.

Coffeyville remained in the rankings, moving up a spot to No. 22. Butler is receiving votes this week.
