NCAA DIVISION II REGIONAL RANKINGS

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Cal Poly Pomona men's soccer team has been ranked at No. 7 in the first official NCAA Division II Super Region 4 rankings released Wednesday by the NCAA.

Sticking with the NCAA Tournament format that was implemented for the 2019 season, the Top 10 teams from each of the four Super Regions across the country will qualify for postseason play.  The West Region, which includes the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA), the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC) and the Pacific West Conference, is merged together with the South Central Region that includes teams from the Lone Star Conference and the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) to create Super Region 4.  A bracket to show the NCAA Tournament format can be found HERE.

The Broncos (9-2-3) are looking to make their fourth trip to the NCAA Final Four in the last six seasons, and should they maintain their ranking as one of the Top 10 teams in Super Region 4 when the 40-team NCAA tournament field is announced on Nov. 15th, CPP will have qualified for the NCAA Tournament for the sixth straight season.

The announcement of the 2021 NCAA Division II Men's Soccer Championship Tournament will come via a live selection show at NCAA.com on Monday, Nov. 15th at 3:30 pm Pacific Time. The NCAA will continue to release updated Super Regional rankings at NCAA.com every Wednesday afternoon leading up to the Nov. 15th selection show.
