West Liberty, W.Va. – The West Liberty University men's basketball team has risen to No. 7 in this week's NABC Top 25 Poll, moving up one spot from their previous ranking of No. 8.

The Hilltoppers, who last played on December 20 at the Las Vegas Holiday Hoops Classic, are gearing up for a busy week. Their first test comes Wednesday when they visit Frostburg State for their Mountain East Conference matchup.

Following that game, West Liberty will host a highly anticipated showdown against No. 9 Fairmont State on Saturday at 4 p.m. in the ASRC.
