Southeast Missouri State University's volleyball team did not crack the national poll this week, but they have moved up two spots in the District VI rankings.
The Otahkians are now rated second in District VI, marking their highest-ever ranking for the second straight week. Last week, Southeast was rated fourth in the district.
Wisconsin-Milwaukee is ranked first in the district, followed by Southeast, Houston, Cincinnati, Louisville, DePaul, St. Louis, Loyola-Chicago, Austin Peay and Eastern Illinois.
Southeast, riding a 15-match winning streak, is 22-5 overall and a first-place 13-1 in the Ohio Valley Conference.
The Otahkians host Tennessee State Friday night and then host Eastern Illinois in an OVC showdown Tuesday night.
