New ITA rankings are out, and as was the case last week, Stanford is unranked in the coaches' poll (a commentary not on the quality of the team, but of its lack of matches). 

But at least we have a schedule! It's limited, as expected, but it's something! It confirms most of the dates above (all except ASU, St. Mary's (which obviously didn't happen), and Pepperdine), and has us starting the season this Friday against Santa Clara!

As short a season as there is, and under standard rules, we'd probably be out of luck in terms of hosting a postseason round or two, but who knows what the plan will be this year?? How do you even properly seed a Stanford team you thought at the beginning of the year was #4, but who will have played just a handful of ranked teams by the end of the season? We'll be as wild a wild card as there is, but that'll just make it all the more exciting. We'll be fresher than most of the other top teams, but we won't have near the seasoning that other teams will (and that this team usually gains over the course of a year).
