Henderson’s last Top-10 national ranking was five years ago this week when the Reddies climbed up to No. 5 nationally before falling at home to Harding.
HSU will put its No. 9 ranking on the line this Saturday when it welcomes East Central (4-1) into Carpenter-Haygood Stadium and Ruggles Field at 2 p.m.–
