KANSAS CITY, MO. – Following a program-best sixth consecutive victory, the Eastern New Mexico men’s soccer team moves into the No. 9 spot on the third weekly United Soccer Coaches National Poll.

The Hounds did not concede a goal last week as they posted a pair of shutouts over the University of Mary and Montana State-Billings. ENMU is tied for the third-most shutouts (4) and sixth-fewest goals-allowed (2) in all of Division II men’s soccer. Along with their national ranking, the Hounds currently sit at No. 2 in the South Central Region.

The Green and Silver will put their ranking to the test Thursday as they travel to Canyon, Texas to face longtime rival No. 4 West Texas A&M with kick off slated for 6 p.m.
