Women's Soccer - Keiser University

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Keiser (Fla.) made it nine in a row at the top as the ninth edition of the Top 25 was released on Wednesday. The Seahawks garnered all 18, first-place votes. Marian (Ind.), Cumberlands (Ky.), Spring Arbor (Mich.), William Carey (Miss.) and Oklahoma Wesleyan all remained at Nos. 2-6 respectively. Grace (Ind.) made the biggest jump of the week, up three spots to No. 18 (tied with Truett McConnell (Ga.)).

 

Poll Methodology

  • The poll was voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences, Continental Athletic Conference (Independents) and Unaffiliated Groups.
  • The Top 25 is determined by a points system based on how each voter ranks the best teams. A team receives 30 points for each first-place vote, 29 for second-place and so on through the list.
  • The highest and lowest ranking for each team (a non-rating is considered a low ratings) is removed and the team’s ranking will be recalculated with an additional point added to each team for every ballot (including discounted ballots) that the teams appears on.
  • Teams that receive only one point in the ballot are not considered “receiving votes.”
