KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Cascade Collegiate Conference placed two teams in the first National Selection Committee (NSC) STADIONIC Men’s Soccer Top 25 of the 2026 season, released Thursday by the national office.
Southern Oregon University landed at No. 16 with a 6-0-1 record, while Rocky Mountain College followed at No. 22 with a 4-0-3 mark.
The NSC Top 25 marks a shift from the earlier coaches’ polls, with members of the National Selection Committee completing individual ballots based on data including the
ranking percentage index (RPI),
Area Rating Committee (ARC) standings, overall record, strength of schedule and conference record. The same data will be used in November when the selection committee determines at-large selections and seeding for the national championship field.
The first ARC standings placed six CCC teams in the West region. Southern Oregon ranked No. 1, followed by Rocky Mountain at No. 3, Carroll College at No. 6, Oregon Tech at No. 7, Eastern Oregon University at No. 9 and Bushnell University at No. 10.
