KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Cascade Collegiate Conference placed one team in the first-ever STADIONIC-NAIA Women’s Soccer National Selection Committee (NSC) Top 25 Poll, released Thursday by the national office.
College of Idaho landed at No. 4 in the inaugural NSC poll with an 8-0-1 record. The Yotes are the only CCC team ranked in the first NSC Top 25.
The NSC Top 25 marks the transition from coaches’ polls to rankings determined by members of the National Selection Committee. Committee members base their individual ballots 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 teams and seeds the national championship field.
The first ARC standings placed five CCC teams in the West region. College of Idaho ranked No. 1, followed by Southern Oregon at No. 4, Eastern Oregon University at No. 6, Rocky Mountain College at No. 7 and Carroll College at No. 9.
