2021 UD Women's Soccer Preview: The Next Step is Now
LINK: http://www.udpride.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35145
We need to separate ourselves from everybody else aside from SLU this year. Next year we go after the crown.

The conference is trending better this year. And don't sleep on VCU. They're ranked ahead of us for the second year in a row. I'm talking about regional polls, not the A10's internal poll which according to past evidence, usually skews a certain way.

It will be a battle for the 2nd through 5th spots. Every team has some weaknesses that can be exposed. I see the teams pretty competitive with one another but would like to see one or two separate. It may largely come down to pod/home field advantage in the critical matches and some fortunate bounces.
Lets not run SLU under the bus just yet for the 1-0 loss at home to XU. They were outplayed and XU was not great in the spring, but were very good in 2019. Season openers are sketchy for everybody.
Dayton needs Itala on the field to put their best foot forward. Without her its going to cost UD one or two Ws somewhere. Hopefully she's back soon. Kent State will be a much better test this weekend, but its the kind of opponent UD must no longer lose to as well.
