They will play 2 more exhibition matches (tomorrow vs. Cal State Bakersfield and Saturday vs. Cal Poly) before starting the season officially a week from Thursday.
The coaches poll places Stanford 13th in the country, behind ACC teams SMU (5th), Wake Forest (6th), Pitt (7th) and Clemson (9th). Also in the top 25 are NC State (14th), Duke (15th) and Virginia (17th).
Among those teams, Stanford will only play SMU, Wake and Pitt in its 8 game conference schedule. Of those, only Wake will be on the road.
Top Drawer Soccer ranked Stanford as the 4th best incoming frosh class in the country. Here's hoping for another exciting and successful season for Coach Gunn and the team.
Amen! We might surprise some people.
Need a consistent goal scorer at forward. Last year they moved the ball well, but just didn’t have somebody to punch in the goals. When your leading scorer (Zach) plays midfield and has 5 goals, you have a major goal scoring problem. Heck Adnan tied for second at 4 as a defender. For reference, Emil Jaaskelainen of Akron scored 23 last year and the leading scorers in the championship game had 15 and 14 goals respectively.
