No. 7 Bellarmine remains the lone Great Lakes Valley Conference men's basketball program ranked in the latest National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) NCAA Division II Men’s Basketball Poll, it was announced Tuesday. 

The Knights (20-2, 11-2 GLVC) improved two positions this week after a 2-0 effort that included wins against Quincy and Illinois Springfield last week.

This week Bellarmine travels to McKendree and Southern Indiana, a team that is receiving votes outside the top 25 this week.
