MISSION, Kan. – The Northern Kentucky University women’s soccer team made its debut in the NCAA Division II national poll at No. 16, as selected by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America.

Great Lakes Region foe Grand Valley State is No. 1 in the nation, moving up one spot after Metropolitan State suffered its first loss of the season to fall out of the top spot.

NKU picked up two goals from Jayme Light and one from Kendall Day as it defeated Findlay to improve its record to 3-0 on the season. Light’s five-point performance Friday gave her a share of the team lead in goals (3) and points (7) with Lauren Franzen.

NKU will defend its ranking Friday as it opens GLVC play against Lewis at Town & Country Sports Complex in Wilder. The Norse will face Wisconsin-Parkside on Sunday afternoon to close out the weekend.
