The biggest mover in Division I edition of the poll is San Diego State, which jumped from 12th place to a share of sixth, thanks to victories at the USC Invitational and the Fresno State Lexus Classic. This is the highest the Aztecs have been ranked since the return of the Golf World polls in 2000-01.
