Benedictine Football Picked 5th In HAAC Pre-Season Poll

 The Heart of America Athletic Conference held its 2013 Football Media Day in Kansas City Tuesday and, when the ballots were tabulated, Benedictine College settled in at #5 in the coaches poll.

Leading the poll was Missouri Valley College who won its first 12 games of last season and lost a close game for the National Championship.  Mid-America Nazerine had 2 first place votes and placed second in the poll.

Baker took third in the poll, followed by Evangel and then Benedictine.  The last two spots in the top 5 were decided by just five voting points as Evangel edged Benedictine 56-51.

BC kicks off the season Saturday, August 31 as the Ravens host Briar Cliff University at 1:00 in Wilcox Stadium.  Catch the game and all BC games through the 2013 season on KAIR!
