Women's soccer rankings: Florida State remains runaway No. 1 as top 7 hold NCAA.com

CHAMPS

PRESENTED BY Following Week 2 of Division I women’s college soccer, the top seven teams remained unchanged, while four previously unranked teams made their way into the top 25 of the United Soccer Coaches Poll. Florida State is again in the top spot, taking 32 first-place votes — No. 2 North Carolina and No. 4 UCLA received one top vote each. No. 3 Virginia, No. 5 Duke, No. 6 TCU and No. 7 Penn State remained in the same spots as well. Georgetown, Santa Clara and Stanford round out the top 10, each moving up in the rankings from last week. But there could be some shakeup in the next poll, as UNC faces Stanford on Sunday and Virginia plays Santa Clara on Thursday. South Carolina rises four spots to No. 12 after kicking off the season with four straight wins. BYU also made a notable jump in the rankings despite a loss to Auburn, defeating Southern Cal 2-1 on Thursday and moving up 10 spots from previously being ranked No. 24. 2021 SEASON:
