Rankings from AP Poll

This season was the first -and only- season to air on the Cincinnati radio station WCFN (now WOSL). It aired on "FM 100.3 The Fan" from its December 30 game vs. Wilmington, when the station launched its sports format, until the end of the season in March. WCFN returned to its rhythmic oldies, which it previously carried as WMOJ "Mojo 100.3" format 3 months later as WOSL "Old School 100.3", ending the broadcast of RedHawks basketball on 100.3.
