Hawks remain fifth in NSCAA Great Lakes poll

For the third week in a row, Iowa soccer comes in at No. 5 in the Great Lakes poll.

The national poll had a bit more love for the Hawks; they received 11 votes, which would put them at No. 28 in the land.

This comes on the heels of a 1-1 weekend in which the Hawks beat Ohio State 2-1 and lost to No. 7 Penn State by the same score.

Iowa also did not make any movement in the latest RPI rankings, either, remaining at No. 68.

The Big Ten continues to be represented well in the poll —conference champion Penn State (16-2) remain in the No. 1 spot. Wisconsin (15-2-1) moved ahead in the poll to No. 2, and Michigan (12-4-2) and Rutgers (11-4-1) rounded out the top four at Nos. 3 and No. 4.

Iowa (12-4-1) is at No. 5, and Minnesota (10-7-1) sits at No. 6. Illinois (10-7-1) was the last Big Ten team in the poll, coming in at No. 9.
