The Christmas break is almost here, so it’s time for #HBCUHoopsWeekly to drop the December edition of the #HBCUHW NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Top Ten Poll. There’s been a bit of movement in the rankings since the debut rankings dropped in November. The King stays the king for another month, with the Norfolk State Spartans remaining at the top of the rankings. South Carolina State has rode a surprisingly strong OOC slate to #2 this month, with the rest of the poll sprinkled with MEAC, SWAC, and CAA schools.
HUGE shoutout to Urban Sports Scene for the HBCU Media Content! Without further adieu, here’s this month’s rankings:
