The SCU men’s and women’s soccer and volleyball teams continue to compete among the nation’s elite. The Bronco women, coming off their national semifinal appearance a year ago, entered the season ranked as high as fourth nationally and defeated top-ranked and defending national champion Notre Dame 2-1 on Sept. 9 at Buck Shaw Stadium. The men’s squad also rose to a number four ranking early in the year after knocking-off then second-ranked UCLA 3-2 in Fullerton, Calif. The SCU volleyball team ranked 17th in the national polls after defeating nationally ranked Arizona and U.C. Santa Barbara to win the Bronco Invitational in the Leavey Center.
