MANSFIELD, Mass. – Coming off a season where it reached the NCAA Division II national semifinals, Adelphi has earned the top spot in the Northeast-10 Conference Women’s Soccer Coaches’ Poll, as announced by the league office on Thursday morning.
Adelphi tallied 98 points and eight first-place votes to lead all NE10 programs, as voted on by head coaches. The Panthers finished the 2023 season with a 15-4-5 record, which included a finalist finish in the NE10 Championship and the program’s first NCAA East Regional title since 2004. Advancing to the national semifinals was also something the Panthers had not done in almost 20 years.
Franklin Pierce finished second with 88 points and one first-place vote, while Southern New Hampshire was a close third with 87 points and two first-place votes. Saint Anselm (66 points) and Southern Connecticut (58 points) rounded-out the top five in the poll.
