MEN'S BASKETBALL COMES IN AT NO. 6 IN LATEST NAIA COACHES' TOP 25 POLL

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Indiana Wesleyan men's basketball came in at No. 6 in the second regular-season installment of the NAIA Men's Basketball Coaches' Top 25 Poll, announced by the national office on Wednesday.

The Wildcats navigated a tough early stretch, opening 7–1, sliding to after a narrow stumble last week. On the floor, IWU continues to grade out as one of the nation's most efficient teams, averaging mid-80s scoring with strong shooting numbers across the board and a double-digit rebounding margin that consistently tilts games in their favor this season.

Caedmon Bontrager has led the charge with a near-20-point scoring clip, giving the Wildcats a reliable interior anchor, while Millen McCartney and Julius Gizzi have provided steady perimeter production. Even with the poll drop, IWU's statistical profile still looks like a top-tier contender — balanced, physical, unselfish, and operating at a level that suggests they remain firmly in the national-title conversation as long as they continue to clean up turnovers and close out tight games.

The Wildcats will be back in Luckey Arena on December 3 at 7:00PM against the University of Saint Francis (Ind.). Color theme is WHITE OUT! Links for tickets, video, and stats will be available at IWUWildcats.com.
