With one round of the NCAA Women’s College Soccer Tournament on the books, Stanford remains #1 in our TopDrawerSoccer.com Tournament 64 National Ranking.

Prior to field selection, the ranking is an effort to project the women's college soccer postseason NCAA Tournament field of 64 each week, including the automatic qualifiers from every DI conference. The ranking update is posted each Monday after reviewing all results from the previous week. With the field selected and tournament underway, the ranking now reflects actual tournament performance, round-by-round.

Following the Cardinal are BYU, Marquette, Virginia and San Diego State, all first-round winners. Among teams bowing out in the first round (and thus ranked 33-64) are Miami (FL), Central Michigan and Long Beach State.

The complete rankings can be seen here.
