UH-Hilo women’s soccer advances two spots to No. 6 in top 25
The UH-Hilo women’s soccer team have kept on rolling with three wins last week to move up two spots in the latest United Soccer Coaches NCAA Division II Poll released Tuesday morning.
The Vulcans, now 5-0-1, notched non-conference wins over HPU and Chaminade along with starting PacWest Conference play with a 6-0 victory against Academy of Art. The back-to-back PacWest Conference Champions are one of 16 unbeaten teams in the current top 25.
