New NCAA men’s soccer rankings released after Week 1

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Sept. 3, 2019) – New teams sit atop both the men’s and women’s polls as United Soccer Coaches released the latest rankings for NCAA Division I soccer on Tuesday.

Wake Forest moved up three spots to grab the top spot in the first men’s regular season ranking of the year, while North Carolina moved up one spot to No. 1 in the second set of women’s rankings.

Wake Forest takes over the top spot in the poll after a pair of wins on opening-weekend. Indiana scored a pair of double overtime wins on opening weekend and remains at No. 2 in the poll. The preseason No. 1 team, Maryland, dropped to No. 3 and were followed by Stanford and Duke to round out the top five.
