If you're watching UNC-CH vs VPI on ESPNU, the men's soccer score is popping up fairly often on the ticker. It's nice to be ranked, because they'll run your score frequently.

I was annoyed when Hofstra was ranked in Softball in the spring and there were times when ESPN showed scores of ranked teams in top conferences but not in the CAA.
I think it would be nice if a page had your record, conference record, winning percentage, RPI (preferably but not essential), goals scored, and goals allowed for each year on one line but https://uncwsports.com/sports/2016/8/30/...spx?id=405 does not have a link to a page like that. They have your record each year, but in order to find your best winning percentage I would have to scroll through every year.

Men have a big game against State college on Tuesday. They just knocked off # 1 UNC @ Chapel Hill. A win would look great for seeding or if we were an at large
I feel like this is a bit normal for our soccer team. They perform rather well (especially this year) OOC, then something like that happens... and teams like JMU end up hosting or winning the conference title... then we get the shaft in the tournament seeding. Sounds painfully familiar with basketball. I feel like us tying UNC, beating NC State (who also beat UNC), should add some significant weight to our tournament seeding if it has to come to an at-large selection.
I mean geeez, we're a top 20 team right now. What kind of seed and/or home tournament games you think they'll get? Too early?

JMU is a top 25 team so them winning the conference wouldn't be surprising.
The Delaware game is a bit disappointing because they are not a good team and Hawks blew a 2-0 lead.

Elon is one of the bottom 2 teams in the league, so anything but a W would be a very disappointing way to finish the season.
