Michigan State women's soccer checks in at No. 3 in latest ranking

Michigan State women's soccer has checked in at No. 3 in the latest rankings.

Michigan State women's soccer has started the 2026 season strongly, as evidenced by their latest ranking. After a 2-0 victory over Xavier, they followed up with a 1-0 win against Loyola Chicago, securing a 2-0 home start. The team faced their biggest challenge when they traveled to Chapel Hill to take on No. 6 North Carolina. Despite the challenge, the Spartans emerged victorious with a 3-2 win, which provided a significant boost to their resume early in the season.

According to the latest United Coaches rankings, Michigan State is currently ranked No. 3 in the nation, just behind Duke and Stanford. With two home games scheduled for the week, Michigan State will face Eastern Michigan on Thursday and then host No. 12 Colorado on Sunday.
