LOGAN, Utah – Following a 2-0-0 week in Pac-12 Conference play, which included a 2-0 win over Washington State and a 1-0 win at Boise State, Utah State soccer checks in at No. 16 in this week's United Soccer Coaches Top 25 poll.
This is the fifth-straight week the Aggies have been ranked, and the team's highest ranking this season. USU climbed one spot from No. 17 last week. The Aggies are the highest-ranked team in the country outside of the P4 with 81 points in the poll. League-mate Boise State, who USU defeated on the road on Sunday, is just outside the poll with five votes.

At the midway point of conference play, USU sits alone atop the Pac-12 standings at 4-0. The Aggies rank in the top 10 nationally this season in several major statistical categories including - goal differential (5th - +27), assists (5th - 39), points (7th - 111), goals (9th - 36) and shots per game (10th - 18.20).
