The NSCAA preseason poll for men's soccer was released on August 2nd. UConn landed just outside the top 25 in this poll. I'm a little surprised UConn is rated this low since they made the NCAA tournament last season, and from what I can tell, almost everyone on the squad is back from what was a very young team last season.
