SEATTLE (Feb. 21) ­ Seattle Pacific University remained at No. 4 in this week's NCAA Division II West Region rankings for men's basketball.

The Falcons (16-8) played just once last week, winning at Saint Martin's. They host two other postseason contenders this week. Alaska Fairbanks, 10th in the region, visits Thursday and No. 5 Alaska Anchorage comes Saturday.

Humboldt State held the No. 1 slot, followed by Cal State San Bernardino and Cal Poly Pomona. The top seed will have the right to host the regional tournament in March.

Five Great Northwest Athletic Conference teams are among those receiving consideration. Seattle University is sixth and Central Washington is No. 9.

The weekly poll will eventually help determine which six at-large teams join the GNAC and CCAA regular-season champions, in the eight-team regional.

NCAA West Regional - 1. Humboldt State (18-3); 2. Cal State San Bernardino (17-4); 3. Cal Poly Pomona (16-5); 4. Seattle Pacific (14-8); 5. Grand Canyon (16-6); 6. Seattle (14-8).7. Alaska Anchorage (14-5); 8. BYU-Hawaii (17-7); 9. Central Washington (13-10); 10. Alaska Fairbanks (12-7).
