The Hawkeye soccer team moved up three spots to No. 13 in the most recent Soccer America top-25 poll. It is also now ranked No. 25 in Top Drawer Soccer’s top-25 poll as well.
The Hawkeyes’ rank comes after playing just one game since the last poll was released, a 1-0 win against Minnesota that pushed their record to 8-1 overall, 3-0 in the Big Ten.
The Soccer America poll certainly showed the Big Ten some love; it has Penn State at No. 10, Wisconsin at No. 14, Rutgers at No. 17, and Illinois at No. 24.
Iowa also received votes in the coach’s poll for the second week in a row and débuted at No. 68 in the first RPI rankings.
The Hawkeyes will take on Maryland at 2:30 p.m. Thursday in a game that will be live on the Big Ten Network.
