INDIANAPOLIS -- The Bemidji State women’s soccer team is right back in the hunt for an NCAA Tournament berth.
The Beavers are one of 10 teams “under consideration” in the first of three Central Region rankings, which the NCAA announced Wednesday.
New this year, teams are listed solely as “under consideration” in alphabetical order for the first ranking of the season. In years past, teams had been ranked No. 1, No. 2 and so on.
BSU (9-2-4, 8-1-3 NSIC) is one of three NSIC schools included in Wednesday’s list, joining Minnesota State and Augustana.

All seven hail from the MIAA: Central Missouri, Central Oklahoma, Emporia State, Fort Hays State, Northeastern State, Northwest Missouri State and Washburn.
