What do you think about LIU Brooklyn Kenesaw, Delaware st, Wagner and St Francis ? That's where most of my daughters friends are going

Don't fall for the bait. Someone just trying to start an argument...

19 - Colorado
20 - Duke
21 - USC
22 - Notre Dame
23 - Denver
24 - Hopkins
25 - Dartmouth


Stony Brook, JMU & VA Tech will not finish the season in the Top 10.

Dartmouth, Notre Dame, USC and Duke are all Top 20.

Loyola, Penn and Virginia all Top 10.

Northwestern could be back in the Final Four.

Albany might surprise and finish in the Top 20.

Season starts in a month. We should know better after a few weeks. I would go with MD, UNC or BC if I was a betting man... The fourth team..... NW wouldn't surprise, UVA, Princeton, PSU? Looking forward to the season getting started.

Agree top 3... Notthwestern and Florida next... Loyola , Penn State, Penn, Prinveton, Virginia next group...

Duke will be back fighting to be in Top 10. Don't count Syracuse out. Dartmouth could make some waves.

USC, Colorado , Stanford ??

Don't think anyone outside that list will do anything ... Maybe UMass?

Looking forward to another great year.

Honestly only the top 9 have a chance. The universe will course correct and UNC or Maryland will be back on top

Top 9? The IL Top 9? Will be very surprised if JMU is back and don't think SBU has a chance (I have been wrong many times in the past).

BC is strong favorite .

Outside of current Top 10 , Duke and USC could surprise. Penn, Virginia, Syracuse and Loyola could all end up as Top 10 Teams.

Will we see another JMU?? Who knows?

Who is the Dark Horse? Colorado? Virginia Tech? Any team not listed have a chance to crack the Top 10 - 15?

Saw Denver, Penn, Princeton, VATech, Loyola, ND play in the fall... All are legit. Saw CO beat SBU. They are both good.

Spring will be exciting. Definitely more parity in top 25-30

And saw CU get crushed by Hofstra ....fall means nothing

Saw MD play in the fall...they won too, probably a fluke though...some teams take fallball seriously

Hofstra is terrible my daughter plays for CU Our first group steam rolled them. Hofstra played even with our 2nd and 3rd team. She was a great player but can see the hot seat heating up on her. Parents on side were less than complimentary of her style and ways. Pac 12 is a heck of a conference could be a three bid league this season

Seriously, fall ball is a time to scrimmage but why do you come on here and blatantly lie. I was at Hofstra that day as well and I can assure you CU scored maybe 3 goals and Hofstra had more than 10. I assumed CU played their subs the whole game because Hofstra was up early and big. Again, it is the fall and it does not mean a whole lot but you obviously have a beef with the Coach.

MD is the favorite in my book ( transfer will help them big time ). BC is close behind but seem to play a week schedule outside the ACC. UNC has a decent shot but the draw may be a big problem . Teams that may surprise I will take Loyolla and Hopkins . Those West Coast teams are always over hyped and come the NCAA tournament when all teams have the same amount of preparation time they get revealed for what they are .

A weak schedule outside ACC? Can you play strong teams outside the ACC? And I’m pretty sure they play at NW and at Navy. But I agree Maryland should be 1.
