Soccer America Top 25 rankings will appear each Tuesday during the regular season.
Holy Moley Batman, the selection committee has discovered that there are five, yup, count them cinco, five !!!, DI teams that merit ranking this week. And even somewhat funnier, the five of them are from California, three from So Cal and two from NorCal!!! I guess they don't play in Arizona, Utah, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, etc!!! Oh well, I suppose this is better than what is happening or not happening on the Men's ranking!
