The Wake Forest men’s soccer team has been unstoppable all year. Now with a record of 7-1-1, Wake Forest is ranked No. 6 in the NSCAA Coaches Poll and ranked No. 1 in the statistically generated NCAA RPI.
Although the NSCAA Coaches Poll is generally more accepted, this is no small feat. The RPI (Rating Percentage Index) takes into account the strength of the opponent, difficulty of the opponent’s schedule and difficulty of the team’s schedule, so topping this list is no easy feat, nor is it the final say in the best team in the nation.
In the past two weeks, Wake Forest has faced arguably the toughest stretch of opposition they’ll face all year.
