There are a lot of familiar names in the top half of the leaderboard, but there are a few new squads that earned a spot in the top 25.  **Preseason Top 25** 1. University of Florida - North Florida 2. Grand Canyon University - Desert 3. University of Georgia - South 4. University of Minnesota - Twin Cities 5. University of Alabama - South 6. University of Wisconsin - North 7. UNC Wilmington - North Carolina 8. Baylor University - Texas 9. University of Missouri - Central 10. University of Tennessee - South 11. Oklahoma State University - Ozark 12. University of Illinois - Great Lakes 13. University of Virginia - Colonial 14. Providence College - New England 15. UNC Chapel Hill - North Carolina 16. Michigan State University - Midwest 17. University of Texas - Texas 18. Missouri State University - Central 19. University of Michigan - Midwest 20. Clemson University - Southeast 21. Miami University (Ohio) - Ohio Valley 22. University of Notre Dame - Indiana 23. University of Nebraska - Twin Cities 24. Georgetown University - Capitol 25. California Polytechnic State University - Pacific **Also receiving votes** University of Delaware - Philadelphia  Georgia Institute of Technology - South University of Arkansas - Ozark Robert Morris University - Atlantic DePaul University - Great Lakes   The University of Florida comes in possessing the number one ranking they held at the end of the fall semester. The bright lights don’t scare them easily as their stellar play continues to show up at the National Championship every semester (T-6 at Barefoot in the fall). Right behind Florida is the spectacular team from Grand Canyon University. The Lopes are looking to reclaim the National Championship after winning last spring and falling to runner-up in the fall. Both of these teams continue to show everyone why they are consistently championship favorites. Finishing out the top five are the powerhouses from Georgia, Minnesota, and Alabama.  ![Grand Canyon University NCCGA](https://blog.nextgengolf.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Grand%20Canyon%20University%20NCCGA.png?width=800&name=Grand%20Canyon%20University%20NCCGA.png) Three new teams cracked the top 25 this semester. The champions of the past two National Invitationals Miami of Ohio and the University of Nebraska keep getting better and better. Are either of these teams ready to be the first ever to win both a National Invitational and National Championship? Cal-Poly from the Pacific region, led by former NCCGA President Brandon Bone, looks ready to take the next step and compete for a National Championship as well.  The region with the most teams in this semester's rankings is the South region with three (Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee). There are five regions that have representation by two teams. These regions are the Twin Cities region (Minnesota and Nebraska), the North Carolina region (UNCW and UNC Chapel Hill), the Texas region (Baylor and Texas), the Central region (Missouri and Missouri State), and the Midwest region (Michigan State and Michigan). Twelve other regions are represented.   ![NCCGA trophy & Red Jacket](https://blog.nextgengolf.org/hs-fs/hubfs/NCCGA%20trophy%20%26%20Red%20Jacket.png?width=800&name=NCCGA%20trophy%20%26%20Red%20Jacket.png) Will this semester finally be the one that a team outside of the preseason top 25 rankings wins the National Championship, or will the hardware be taken by a team listed above?
