OREM, Utah – The Utah Valley University women's soccer team continues to gain national recognition as it received 14 points in this week's United Soccer Coaches Top 25 Poll, tying with Virginia Tech. The Wolverines are the next team into the Top 25, just behind #25 NC State, which garnered 23 points.
This marks the second straight week that UVU has received votes in the Top 25 poll and the second straight week that the team is ranked No. 2 in the United Soccer Coaches Pacific Region Top 10 poll, solidifying its strong presence on the regional stage.
Utah Valley, now 2-1-1 overall this season, faced tough competition on the road last week, battling to a 1-1 draw at UCF before falling 5-0 at No. 21 Virginia.
The Wolverines now return home from their 14-day road trip to take on Long Beach State on Saturday at 4 p.m. in the team's home opener at Clyde Field.
