The latest NFCA Division III rankings were released this week, with the Central College softball team holding on to the No. 5 spot in the poll.  

The Dutch are 35-5 overall this season and are currently in action at the Iowa Conference tournament in Decorah.  Central is joined in the top ten by fellow Iowa Conference rivals Luther – ranked No. 4 – and Coe College, which moved up two spots to No. 7.  

The top six teams remained the same from last week’s rankings, with Linfield (41-2) still holding the top spot.
