New Rankings
With the high success rate of many of the women's sports teams it comes as no surprise that they continue to climb in the rankings.Field Hockey recently went up to #12 Ohio State and left with a 2-1 victory. They've improved to 6-0 on the season. The Cards climbed one spot in the polls from #8 to #7. Their next game is at North Carolina this Friday.
Coming off an overtime upset over Vanderbilt, Louisville women's soccer finally broke into the Top 25. The Coaches Poll puts the Cards at #20 and Top Drawer Soccer puts them at #25. Coincidentally, Women's Soccer also plays UNC in their next match. They host the Tar Heels at Lynn Stadium Saturday at 7:30.
The only team to fall is still ranked-Volleyball. The Cards went 1-1 in Nashville over the weekend, sweeping Xavier and falling to a ranked Purdue squad. It cost them as they fell from #22 to #25 in the Coaches Poll. They hit the road to take on #16 Kentucky on Friday night.
No matter which team(s) you decide to follow this weekend you're guaranteed to see a good game.
