    So in a week that was not nearly as dramatic as the Women's weekly rankings, it appears that the "coefficient" is the real "talk of the town" in the USPORTS Men's weekly Top 10. Courtesy of USPORTS: https://usports.ca/en/sports/soccer/m/news/2022/10/3208630023/top-10-msoc-20221018 At some point someone has to do the math, because it doesn't quite appear to add up. It begs to wonder how the Number 5 Ontario Tech Ridgebacks who this past weekend defeated the previously higher ranked Number 6 Carleton...

    It's been a very interesting start to the week in USPORTS Women's Soccer that created quite the shake up in the U SPORTS Women's National Soccer Top 10 rankings this week. USPORTS announced Monday that the previous USPORTS Number 5 nationally ranked and defending national champion MacEwan Griffins women's soccer team had their season upended on Sunday due to a misinterpretation of eligibility rules related to changes caused by pandemic disruptions, which resulted in playing an...

    New name, but the program is delivering the same exciting results this week as the TMU Bold and Ontario Tech Ridgebacks show that there are some new kids on the block. Courtesy of USports: https://usports.ca/en/sports/soccer/m/news/2022/10/3412413260/top-10-msoc-20221011 This week, the biggest movers in U SPORTS men's soccer is No. 5 TMU Bold (6-2-0), following two OUA East matchups against cross-town rivals, Toronto Varsity Blues. The Bold climbed three positions after double-shutout victories on Thursday (3-0) and Saturday (1-0). The Bold opened game...

    Thanksgiving weekend was great for some and left them giving thanks, but left others hungry with some less than favorable results. Courtesy of U Sports: https://usports.ca/en/sports/soccer/f/news/2022/10/30730091/top-10-wsoc-20221011 The newly ranked No. 8 StFX X-Women (5-2-0) scored a big win (3-1) over the Cape Breton Capers (6-1-0) to earn a spot in the U SPORTS Top 10 rankings while pushing the Capers down two places to No. 10. The X-Women will host a much-anticipated Cape Breton rematch at STFX Stadium on Oct. 14.   Meanwhile, No. 9...

    Courtesy of U Sports: https://usports.ca/en/sports/soccer/f/news/2022/10/1576856781/top-10-wsoc-20221004 The first month of the U Sports Women's Soccer season, (really the first five weeks), have had some interesting stories with the UBC Thunderbirds being the "wire to wire" leader so far, as we reach the half way point of the season. There are some great stories developing, so let's take a look and create some chatter.to see who will be going to Laval November 10th to the 13th at TELUS-UL Stadium. The...

    The weather in eastern Canada has been the big story this past week. But the battle hardened athletes of the past two years of COVID no doubt will find a way to come out almost unscathed. Our thoughts are with the friends and families down east. Here are the week 3 national Men’s soccer rankings: Courtesy of USports: https://usports.ca/en/sports/soccer/m/news/2022/09/3735791961/top-10-msoc-09262022 No. 1 York Lions are back on top of the U SPORTS rankings, while No. 8 Guelph Gryphons drop three places following last weekend's OUA...
