FHSU SPORTS INFORMATION DEPARTMENT<\/p>\n

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fort Hays State Women’s Soccer entered the NSCAA Division II Top 25 Poll for the first time in program history on Tuesday (Sept. 13). The Tigers debut in the poll at No. 16 after a 4-0 start to the season.<\/p>\n

This is the first time the FHSU women have cracked the top 25 of the poll. The 2014 team received votes in the first regular season poll, but didn’t break into the top 25. That was the first time FHSU was ever referenced in the poll.<\/p>\n

Fort Hays State currently owns the seventh-best scoring offense in the nation, averaging 4.25 goals per match. But the defense has been rock solid as well so far, allowing just a 0.24 goals-against average. The Tigers have three shutouts out of four matches already and the only goal surrendered for the season was a penalty kick. FHSU has outscored its opponents 17-1 for the season.<\/p>\n

Fort Hays State and Central Missouri are the only MIAA teams currently referenced in the women’s poll. Central Missouri moved up to No. 3 in the nation this week after holding the No. 4 spot in the first regular season poll. FHSU did not receive any votes in the first regular season poll, but jumped all the way to No. 16 this week.<\/p>\n
