Leading Vote-Getters
Since the inception of the Coaches' Poll in 1999, the #1 ranking in the various weekly polls has been held by only a select group of teams. Through the end of 2014, the team and the number of times they have held the #1 weekly ranking are shown below. The number of times a team has been ranked #1 in the postseason poll (the national champion) is shown in parentheses.
In 1999, the results of a postseason poll, if one was conducted, are not known. Therefore, an additional poll was presumed, and the #1 postseason ranking has been credited to the postseason tournament champion, the Northwestern Oklahoma State Rangers.
| Team | Total #1 Rankings |
|---|---|
| Carroll (MT) | 57 (6) |
| Sioux Falls (SD) | 55 (3) |
| Georgetown (KY) | 25 (2) |
| Morningside (IA) | 17 |
| Saint Xavier (IL) | 14 (1) |
| Northwestern Oklahoma State | 12 (1) |
| Marian (IN) | 9 (1) |
| Grand View (IA) | 4 (1) |
| Azusa Pacific (CA) | 3 |
| Saint Francis (IN) | 3 |
| Cumberlands (KY) | 2 |
| Southern Oregon | 1 (1) |
